The Weatherby Mark V Backcountry Guide is purpose-built as a lightweight mountain rifle, chambered here in Weatherby’s own 25 WBY RPM and finished in black with olive green and backpack-pattern accents (brand part no. MGS01N25RWR4B). It rides on a Peak 44 Blacktooth carbon-fiber stock engineered to move at the same rate as the rifle’s 416R stainless steel, damping vibration for more consistent groups from a rifle that still carries light on a long hunt. The 22-inch threaded barrel is finished in Graphite Black Cerakote alongside a drilled-and-tapped receiver, and a TriggerTech trigger delivers a true zero-creep break backed by Weatherby’s sub-MOA accuracy guarantee. This is a rifle built for hunters who need magnum-class reach without carrying a heavier gun to earn it.
