The Weatherby Mark V High Country rifle in 7mm Backcountry (brand part no. MHC01N7MMBR2B) is purpose-built as a lightweight, versatile mountain rifle, starting at just 5.7 pounds for hunters who cover serious ground. Weatherby fits Peak 44’s Bastion carbon fiber stock, which weighs only 24 ounces and includes a shooter-friendly vertical grip with dual front swivel studs for multiple attachments. An AccuBrake and 3D Hex recoil pad manage recoil extremely well even with Weatherby’s magnum-class cartridges, and the spiral-fluted barrel, trigger guard, and receiver wear a Graphite Black Cerakote finish over the exposed carbon fiber stock’s WYO brown and backpack sponge-pattern accents. The 20-inch barrel carries a 1-in-8 twist, and the rifle feeds from a 4+1-round magazine. Among lightweight mountain bolt action rifles, this Mark V High Country configuration favors hunters chasing game at the furthest depths of the backcountry.
