The Weatherby Mark V Backcountry Carbon rifle in .240 Weatherby Magnum with a 22-inch barrel (brand part no. MCB20N240WR4B) pairs Weatherby’s tensioned carbon fiber barrel technology with the classic steel Mark V action for a lightweight, packable hunting rifle. Weatherby uses a 1-in-10-inch twist matched to .240 Weatherby Magnum’s flat-shooting varmint-to-deer performance, and the 5+1 capacity gives more rounds on tap than most rifles in this class. Among lightweight precision hunting rifles in bolt action rifles, this Backcountry Carbon configuration favors hunters who want a versatile, flat-shooting cartridge in a genuinely packable build.
