Description
There's a reason carbon fiber barrels have taken over the premium hunting rifle market, and the Weatherby Mark V CarbonMark shows exactly why. At the heart of this rifle is a 416R stainless match-grade barrel roll-wrapped in a carbon fiber sleeve loaded under tension. The clever part is that roughly 95 percent of that carbon never touches the steel, so air flows around the barrel and pulls heat away fast. You get the stiffness of a heavy contour barrel without lugging one up a mountain, and your point of impact stays put even when you're running a longer string at the range.
Why the CarbonMark Earns Its Sub-MOA Guarantee
Weatherby backs this rifle to shoot a three-shot group under an inch at 100 yards with quality factory ammo, and the parts list explains how. A TriggerTech trigger breaks clean with essentially zero creep, the Mark V action features the shortest bolt lift in the business at 54 degrees, and the hand-laid Monte Carlo fiberglass stock gives you a solid, consistent cheek weld. Chambered in 6.5 Creedmoor with a 1:8 twist, it stabilizes the heavy, high-BC bullets this cartridge is known for, whether that's a 140 grain match load or a 143 grain hunting bullet.
A Mark V CarbonMark Built to Be Carried
At 6.9 pounds bare, this rifle hits the sweet spot between packable and shootable. The receiver, trigger guard, and brake wear Coyote Tan Cerakote while the bolt and safety are done in Graphite Black, so weather and brush aren't going to bother it. The stock's gray and tan sponge pattern over black looks sharp and hides scuffs well. The 5/8×24 threaded muzzle ships with Weatherby's Accubrake ST installed, which knocks down felt recoil considerably, and it comes off easily if you'd rather run a suppressor. The receiver is drilled and tapped, feeding comes from a 4+1 hinged floorplate setup, and a 2-position bolt-mounted safety keeps things simple in the field. If 6.5 Creedmoor is your deer and antelope cartridge, this is one of the nicest ways to carry it.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Weatherby Mark V CarbonMark really guaranteed to shoot sub-MOA?
Yes. Weatherby guarantees a three-shot group of .99 inch or less at 100 yards from a cold barrel when using Weatherby factory or premium ammunition. Between the match-grade 416R stainless barrel, the TriggerTech trigger, and the stiff carbon fiber wrap, this rifle has the hardware to back that claim up in the real world.
Can I run a suppressor on the Mark V CarbonMark?
You can. The muzzle is threaded 5/8×24, which is the standard pitch for most 30 caliber and 6.5mm suppressors. Just spin off the included Accubrake ST and thread on your can. If you shoot without a suppressor, the brake does a great job taming what little recoil the 6.5 Creedmoor produces.
Does this rifle come with a scope or sights?
No, it ships without sights, which is typical for a precision hunting rifle in this class. The receiver comes drilled and tapped from the factory, so you just need bases or a rail plus rings to mount your optic. Most buyers pair it with a quality 3-15x or 4-16x hunting scope to take advantage of the accuracy.
Is the CarbonMark light enough for backcountry hunting?
At 6.9 pounds before optics, it carries very well for a full-size 24 inch barreled rifle. The carbon fiber barrel is where the weight savings happen, giving you heavy-contour stiffness and fast cooling without the heft. Add a reasonable scope and sling and you're still in comfortable all-day-carry territory.
