Weatherby Mark V High Country Rifle, .257 Weatherby Magnum, 28-Inch Barrel

The Weatherby Mark V High Country rifle in .257 Weatherby Magnum (brand part no. MHC01N257WR8B) is purpose-built as a lightweight, versatile mountain rifle, starting at just 5.7 pounds for hunters who cover serious ground while shooting one of Weatherby’s flattest-shooting cartridges. 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 historic magnum 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.
