The Weatherby Mark V Backcountry 2.0 rifle in 7mm Backcountry (brand part no. MBC20N7MMBR2B) is purpose-built as the best lightweight mountain rifle on the market, starting at just 5.2 pounds. Weatherby fits Peak 44’s Blacktooth carbon fiber stock, which weighs only 19 ounces, making it one of the lightest production stocks available. An AccuBrake ST and 3D Hex recoil pad manage recoil extremely well even with Weatherby’s magnum-class cartridges, and the fluted barrel, trigger guard, and receiver wear a Patriot Brown Cerakote finish while the bolt, bolt knob, and safety are finished in Graphite Black Cerakote. The 20-inch barrel carries a 1-in-8 twist, and the rifle feeds from a 4+1-round magazine. Among ultralight mountain bolt action rifles, this Mark V Backcountry 2.0 configuration favors hunters who need to make the shot count 10 miles from the truck.
