Weatherby Mark V Backcountry Guide | 6.5 Weatherby RPM | 22-inch

The Weatherby Mark V Backcountry Guide is a purpose-built bolt-action rifle designed for light, capable field use. It combines a BSF carbon fiber barrel with a Peak 44 Blacktooth stock and a 3DHex recoil pad to manage magnum-level recoil while minimizing weight. The rifle includes a threaded muzzle fitted with a machined titanium Accubrake ST and an adjustable TriggerTech trigger for user-selectable pull weight. For an optic under $1,000 that complements the platform, consider the Vortex Viper PST Gen II 5-25×50 for a balance of magnification range, glass quality, and ruggedness.

Applications: backcountry and mountain hunting, and precision long-range field shooting where weight, reliable cycling and recoil control are priorities.
