Weatherby MBT20N280AR6B Mark V Backcountry 2.0 Ti | .280 AI | 24″

The Weatherby Mark V Backcountry 2.0 Ti (MBT20N280AR6B) is a lightweight, titanium-action hunting rifle chambered in .280 Ackley Improved and built for mobile, long-range field use. It pairs a thin, fluted #1 contour 24″ barrel with Weatherby’s Accubrake ST and a Peak 44 Blacktooth carbon-fiber stock to minimize weight while managing recoil. For an optic that complements this rifle’s long-range potential without exceeding $1,000, consider an option such as the Vortex Viper PST Gen II 5-25×50, which offers a versatile magnification range and reticle options for precise shot placement.

This rifle is well-suited to mountain hunting and extended-range big-game work where weight and follow-up capability matter. It features a drilled-and-tapped receiver and a 4+1 magazine capacity for field reliability and straightforward handling.
