The Weatherby Mark V Backcountry Capra in .25 Weatherby RPM (brand part no. MBP01N25RWR3B) redefines the lightweight mountain rifle, starting at just 4 pounds by using the Mark V 6-lug short action machined from titanium, making it one of the lightest production rifles ever offered. Weatherby gives the thin-contour barrel double-spiral fluting that forms a double helix, cutting weight while adding rigidity for sub-MOA accuracy. A modified Peak 44 Blacktooth stock shaves ounces on the trail while preserving comfortable ergonomics and effective recoil control, and the 21-inch barrel wears a 2-inch muzzle brake threaded 1/2×28. The rifle feeds from a detachable 2+1 magazine and includes a two-position safety. Among mountain hunting rifles in the bolt action rifles category, the Backcountry Capra favors hunters who want one of the lightest production rifles on the market.
