There are magnum rifles, and then there is a Mark V chambered in 30-378 Weatherby Magnum. This cartridge has held the title of fastest production .30 caliber since it hit the market in 1996, and it was built for exactly one job: putting heavy .30 caliber bullets on target at distances where most cartridges have run out of steam. The Apex gives it a proper home, with a 26 inch fluted #3 contour barrel wearing a two-tone Coyote Tan and Graphite Black Cerakote finish that shrugs off weather and looks sharp doing it.
Big cartridges usually mean heavy rifles, but Weatherby went the other direction here. The Peak 44 Bastion carbon fiber stock weighs just 23 ounces, making it one of the lightest vertical grip production stocks you can get. It features an ambidextrous palm swell and a deep thumb groove that naturally sets your hand in a proper firing position, plus dual sling studs up front so you can run a bipod and a sling at the same time. The spiral fluted bolt trims more weight while cycling noticeably smoother, and the famous 54 degree bolt throw gets you back on target faster than a standard 90 degree action while leaving plenty of scope clearance.
Nobody pretends a 30-378 is a soft shooter, so Weatherby stacked the deck in your favor. The factory-installed Accubrake ST uses 30 symmetrical ports to knock felt recoil down dramatically, and the 3DHEX printed recoil pad soaks up what's left with its collapsing internal structure. A TriggerTech Field trigger breaks clean with zero creep and adjusts externally, which matters when you're squeezing off a shot at serious distance. The receiver comes drilled and tapped with no sights, ready for the long-range glass this rifle deserves. Feeding comes from a 2+1 hinged floorplate design, and every Mark V is backed by Weatherby's guarantee of a sub-MOA three-shot group at 100 yards with factory or premium ammo. For elk across a canyon or plains game at extended range, this setup is tough to top.
The 30-378 is a serious magnum, but this rifle handles it better than you'd expect. The factory-installed Accubrake ST with its 30 radial ports cuts felt recoil substantially, and the 3DHEX recoil pad absorbs a good chunk of what remains. Most people find it very shootable off a bench or bipod. Just plan on ear protection with some margin, because that brake is loud.
No, it ships without sights or optics. The receiver is drilled and tapped, so you just need bases or a rail and rings. Given the long-range potential of the 30-378 cartridge, this rifle deserves quality magnified glass with reliable turret tracking.
Yes. Weatherby guarantees every Mark V will shoot a three-shot group of .99 inches or less at 100 yards from a cold barrel when using Weatherby factory or premium ammunition, valid for two years from the verified purchase date for the original owner. Many owners report groups tighter than that once they find the load their barrel likes.
This is a long-range big game rig through and through. The 30-378 Weatherby Magnum is the fastest production .30 caliber cartridge made, delivering flat trajectories and heavy energy at distances where most rounds fade. It shines for elk, moose, mule deer, and open-country hunts where shots can stretch way out, and the lightweight carbon fiber stock keeps it packable in rough terrain.
