MARK V BACKCOUNTRY 2.0 338RPM

The next generation of the ground-breaking Backcountry family the Backcountry 2.0 builds on the classic steel Weatherby Mark V action with some key updates. Still equipped with a super thin and lightweight fluted barrel it is contoured at a #1 MOD or #2 MOD depending on the chambering. – The most noticeable upgrade is the new carbon fiber Peak 44 Blacktooth stock the lightest versions of which tip the scales at under 20 ounces. – Also grabbing the eye is the second generation 3DHEX recoil pad the first production 3D printed pad the firearms world has seen. Hidden inside the pad are a series of interlocking voids that progressively collapse during recoil expanding the time component of the recoil impulse and deadening the sharp kick of magnum chamberings. – More pronounced spiral fluting on the bolt body not only trims a little weight it also reduces bearing surface within the action and results in even smoother function. The newly-threaded bolt handle is equipped with a lightweight aluminum extended and skeletonized knob. – Fit with Weatherby
