The Weatherby Mark V Backcountry 2.0 Ti Carbon rifle in 6.5 Weatherby RPM with a 24-inch barrel and 4+1 capacity (brand part no. MCT20N65RWR6B) combines Weatherby’s tensioned carbon fiber barrel with the supremely lightweight and strong titanium Weatherby Mark V action, weighing in at just 5.4 pounds. Weatherby fits the rifle with the carbon fiber Peak 44 Blacktooth stock in a bi-tone grey and white sponge pattern, and the 3DHEX recoil pad uses interlocking voids that progressively collapse during recoil to deaden the sharp kick of this fast-shooting cartridge. The trigger guard, bolt, and safety wear black Cerakote, and the rifle carries swivel studs for accessory mounting. Among titanium-action carbon-barreled rifles in the bolt action rifles category, this Backcountry 2.0 Ti Carbon configuration favors hunters who want one of Weatherby’s fastest 6.5mm cartridges at a remarkably light weight.
