The Weatherby Mark V APEX is a left-hand bolt-action hunting rifle built on Weatherby’s Mark V steel action and configured for lightweight carry and long-range performance. This APEX model pairs a fluted, two-tone Cerakote barrel with the Peak 44 Bastion vertical-grip carbon fiber stock for improved ergonomics and reduced carry weight. The rifle includes a 3DHEX recoil pad, spiral-fluted bolt body, and Weatherby’s Accubrake ST to manage recoil impulse.
