Weatherby MKV Backcountry 2.0 Carbon in 30-378 WBY Magnum, left-hand action, carbon fiber barrel and Peak 44 Blacktooth carbon stock. Lightweight magnum rifle designed for long-range field use.
The Weatherby MKV Backcountry 2.0 Carbon is a lightweight, carbon-barrel Mark V action rifle chambered in 30-378 WBY Mag. It pairs a tensioned carbon fiber barrel system with a steel action and Peak 44 Blacktooth carbon stock to reduce weight while retaining magnum-level performance. For optics, a precision rifle scope such as the Vortex Viper PST Gen II 5-25×50 (priced under $1,000) is a good match for the cartridge’s long-range capability. Applications: long-range mountain hunting and extended-range precision field shooting.

Combining a Mark V action with a tensioned carbon barrel and a very lightweight Peak 44 stock gives the Backcountry 2.0 Carbon a distinct advantage where carrying weight and recoil management matter. The Accubrake ST and 3DHEX pad make magnum chamberings more pleasant to shoot, and the carbon construction keeps the platform compact for long days in the field.
Owners and reviewers commonly note the rifle’s lightweight carbon construction and its exceptional accuracy for a production magnum rig, including an internal Weatherby accuracy record cited with this barrel system.
