Weatherby Mark V Backcountry 2.0 Ti Carbon | .257 Wby Mag | 26in

The Weatherby Mark V Backcountry 2.0 Ti Carbon pairs a tensioned carbon-fiber-wrapped barrel with a titanium Mark V action to produce an exceptionally light magnum rifle intended for extended treks and precise shots from the field. This Backcountry 2.0 features a Peak 44 Blacktooth carbon stock, Accubrake ST muzzle device, spiral-fluted bolt components, and a threaded bolt handle with a skeletonized aluminum knob. For a robust optic under $1,000 that complements the cartridge and the rifle’s intended use, consider the Vortex Viper PST Gen II 3-15×44 for its magnification range and durable construction.

Applications: Backcountry big-game hunting in mountainous terrain and longer-range field shots where light carry weight and reliable accuracy are priorities.

The Backcountry 2.0 Ti Carbon is designed for shooters who prioritize carry weight without sacrificing the performance of a magnum platform. Its carbon-wrapped barrel and titanium action reduce mass while the Peak 44 stock and the 3DHEX recoil pad work to manage recoil on heavy-hitting cartridges. The drilled-and-tapped receiver and threaded muzzle make it straightforward to add optics and suppressors or brakes to adapt the rifle to field conditions.

Owners commonly note the rifle’s exceptionally light carry weight and report strong accuracy from the carbon barrel system, making it well-suited for long approaches and selective shots when hunting in rugged country.
