Weatherby Mark V Backcountry 2.0 Carbon | MCB20N653WR8B

The Weatherby Mark V Backcountry 2.0 Carbon is a lightweight, magnum-capable bolt-action rifle built around Weatherby’s tensioned carbon-fiber barrel system and a steel Mark V action. This configuration pairs a carbon-wrapped barrel and the Peak 44 Blacktooth carbon stock to deliver reduced weight and manageable recoil for large-caliber field use. For this rifle an optic such as the Vortex Viper PST Gen II 5-25×50 (a high-quality scope typically available under $1,000) provides the magnification range and durability to match the rifle’s long-range potential.

Applications: backcountry mountain hunting and long-range precision shooting with magnum cartridges.
