The 6.5-300 Weatherby Magnum exists for one reason: raw speed. Weatherby necked their proven .300 Wby case down to 6.5mm and ended up with the fastest 6.5 cartridge you can buy, launching a 140 grain bullet past 3400 fps. Flat trajectory, wind-bucking momentum, and plenty of energy left at distances where most hunting cartridges are running out of steam. The Mark V Hunter gives that cartridge a proper home, with a 26 inch barrel that lets the big case burn its full powder charge and a 1:8 twist that stabilizes the long, high-BC bullets this caliber was made for.
This chambering rides on Weatherby's magnum-length Mark V action with its famous nine-lug bolt, a design built to handle the hottest commercial cartridges out there. The bolt body is deeply fluted with a removable knob, which sheds a little weight, helps clear grit in the field, and cuts down on bearing surface for a noticeably smooth throw. The short 54 degree bolt lift keeps your knuckles clear of the scope and gets you back on target fast. An externally adjustable TriggerTech trigger breaks clean, and every Mark V comes backed by Weatherby's guarantee of a 3-shot group under an inch at 100 yards from a cold barrel with quality ammo.
The barreled action wears a full coat of Cobalt Cerakote, so rain, snow, and sweaty pack straps are not going to eat at the finish. The muzzle comes threaded 1/2×28 with a snug factory thread protector, ready for a brake or suppressor whenever you are. Just keep in mind the sporter-weight barrel pairs best with a lightweight can.
The Advanced Polymer stock borrows its lines from the Backcountry 2.0 family, with a trim flat-bottomed forend, ambidextrous palm swells, and aluminum pillar bedding, all dressed in an Urban Gray finish with black speckle. At 7.3 pounds bare, it carries well for a magnum, and the generous recoil pad takes the edge off at the bench. Feed it from the 3+1 hinged floorplate and go find out how far away is still too close.
Yes, the muzzle comes threaded 1/2×28 with a factory thread protector, so it will accept a brake or suppressor with that thread pitch. The fit on Weatherby's thread protector is tight enough that you might not even notice the threads at first glance. Since this is a sporter-contour barrel, a lightweight suppressor is the better match and will have less effect on your point of impact.
It is the fastest 6.5mm cartridge on the market, pushing a 140 grain bullet over 3400 fps, which makes it a natural fit for open-country hunting where shots run long. It shoots flat, fights wind well, and carries enough energy for deer, antelope, sheep, and elk-sized game at extended range. The 1:8 twist barrel on this rifle stabilizes the heavy, high-BC bullets that make the cartridge shine.
It does. Weatherby guarantees every Mark V will print a 3-shot group of .99 inches or less at 100 yards from a cold barrel when fed Weatherby factory or premium ammunition. Between the TriggerTech trigger and the pillar-bedded stock, this rifle has the ingredients to back that up.
No, this model feeds from an internal magazine with a hinged floorplate, holding 3 rounds plus one in the chamber. It is a clean, snag-free setup that a lot of hunters prefer for carrying in rough country. Unloading is quick since the floorplate drops the rounds right into your hand.
