Weatherby built the Alpine CT for the hunter who counts ounces before a long climb, and this 7mm Backcountry version might be the smartest pairing in the whole lineup. The 7mm Backcountry cartridge was designed from the ground up to push heavy bullets at serious speed out of short barrels, which is exactly why this rifle wears a 20 inch tube. You get magnum-level downrange performance in a package that stays handy in the timber and plays nicely with a suppressor, all while carrying like a rifle that weighs a good bit less than most of what's hanging in the safe.
The barrel is a BSF carbon fiber design with a 416R stainless core, wrapped under tension so most of the carbon never touches the steel. That air gap helps the barrel shed heat quickly and damp vibration, which keeps groups consistent as you run through a string at the range. Up front, Weatherby's Accubrake DST is a directional self-timing brake that takes real bite out of recoil and settles the muzzle for faster follow-ups. The Model 307 action underneath is a two-lug, fully cylindrical design that accepts a huge range of aftermarket parts, and the bolt strips down without tools for quick cleaning in camp. An M16-style extractor handles ejection duty, and the externally adjustable TriggerTech Field trigger breaks clean right out of the box.
The Peak 44 Bastion stock weighs just 24 ounces and features an ambidextrous palm swell, a 3D-Hex recoil pad, and dual sling studs on the forend for bipods and slings. The hand-painted sponge pattern in brown and tan earth tones looks sharp and grips well with wet or gloved hands, while Cerakote on the metalwork shrugs off weather. With a 4+1 hinged floorplate, a pre-installed Peak 44 20 MOA Picatinny rail, and Weatherby's sub-MOA accuracy standard, this rifle is ready for an optic and a mountain. Built in Sheridan, Wyoming.
The rifle comes in right around 6.1 pounds bare, which is impressively light for a full-power hunting rig. The Peak 44 Bastion stock accounts for just 24 ounces of that, and the carbon fiber barrel trims weight where a steel barrel would add it. Even with a scope and sling, it carries easily on long backcountry days.
The 7mm Backcountry cartridge was purpose-built to reach full velocity from short barrels, pushing a 170 grain bullet around 3,000 fps out of a 20 inch tube. That means you give up very little ballistically while gaining a shorter, handier rifle. It also makes this an excellent host for a suppressor since overall length stays manageable.
Yes. The Alpine CT ships with a Peak 44 20 MOA Picatinny rail pre-installed with 8-40 screws, so all you need are rings and glass. The 20 MOA cant gives you extra elevation for stretching shots at longer distances. No iron sights are included.
Weatherby backs the Alpine CT with a sub-MOA accuracy guarantee using quality factory ammunition. The tension-wrapped BSF barrel cools quickly and damps vibration, which helps groups stay tight even as the barrel warms up. Field reports frequently show groups tighter than the guarantee.
