Mark V® High Country

$2,699.00 – $2,799.00

Starting at just 5.7 lbs the Mark V® High Country was purpose-built to be a lightweight, versatile mountain rifle. It features Peak 44™’s Bastion™ carbon fiber stock which weighs only 24oz. The Bastion has a shooter-friendly vertical grip and features dual front swivel studs for multiple attachments. Equipped with an Accubrake and 3DHEX® Recoil pad, the High Country manages recoil extremely well, even with Weatherby’s historic magnum cartridges. This is the rifle you want when hiking to the furthest depths of the high country.

SPECIFICATIONS

The next step in the Mark V lineup

Building on the popularity of the ground-breaking Backcountry 2.0 series, the High Country takes the next step in the Mark V lineup adding a lightweight vertical grip option. The Peak 44™ Bastion™ is a vertical grip carbon fiber stock that weighs in at just 24 ounces making it one of the lightest vertical grip stocks on the market today. The Bastion features dual front swivel studs to allow for multiple attachments and the recoil-reducing 3DHEX® recoil pad. Hidden inside the pad are a series of interlocking voids that progressively collapse during recoil, expanding the time component of the recoil impulse and deadening the sharp kick of magnum chamberings.

The High Country is built on the classic steel Weatherby® Mark V® action and is equipped with a lightweight spiral fluted barrel. Spiral fluting helps cut weight and can help with heat management. Spiral fluting on the bolt body not only trims a little weight but it also reduces bearing surface within the action and results in a smoother function. The threaded bolt handle is equipped with a lightweight skeletonized knob.

The spiral fluted barrel is threaded and fitted with Weatherby’s highly-effective Accubrake® ST. With 30 symmetrically-spaced ports that help harness the recoil, it tames even magnum chamberings and makes them pleasant to shoot.

All Mark V’s are proudly made in Sheridan, WY.

FEATURES

Guaranteed Sub-Moa Accuracy

All Mark V® rifles are guaranteed to shoot a 3-shot group of .99” or less at 100 yards (SUB-MOA) from a cold barrel when used with Weatherby® factory or premium ammunition within Two-Years of Verified Purchase Date to Original Purchaser.

TriggerTech Trigger

TriggerTech’s trigger provides true zero-creep break, extremely short over-travel, and is externally adjustable. Precision cut stainless steel components ensure consistent trigger pulls from shot to shot in a safe, reliable, and corrosion resistant package.

Accubrake ST

By adding an Accubrake ST you will significantly reduce felt recoil up to 53%. Available in four different barrel diameters, with thread protector, for a perfect brake-to-barrel contour.

54 Degree Bolt

The shortest in the industry (as compared to typical 90 bolt throw). Allows for faster chambering on follow-up shots and greater bolt-to-scope clearance.

Deep Fluted Bolt

A larger radius, deeper flute not only trims a bit more weight from the bolt body of the Mark V, it also increases the smoothness with which the bolt can be cycled.

Carbon Fiber Stock

Sourced from Peak 44, this stock has the distinction of being the lightest production aerospace-grade carbon fiber stock on the market. Industry-leading manufacturing techniques, patented bedding technology and the addition of the 3DHEX recoil-reducing buttpad mean this is one of the most advanced lightweight stocks to date.

3DHEX Recoil Reducer

Large caliber felt recoil dissipation provided in the lightest recoil reducer available. 3DHEX is a patent pending high strength energy diffusing lattice structure designed to distribute specific directional forces and reduce muzzle lift.

Cerakote®

Cerakote is the industry leading thin-film ceramic coating. The Cerakote unique formula enhances physical properties including wear, corrosion, and chemical resistance while improving impact strengths, and hardness.

Removable Bolt Knob

Allowing for customization and utility, the bolt handle of the Mark V is now threaded to accept a variety of bolt knobs
