Description
Every ounce matters when you're climbing above the timberline, and Weatherby built the Mark V Backcountry 2.0 Ti for exactly that kind of hunt. The heart of the rifle is a titanium Mark V action, left raw to show off the machine work, paired with a Peak 44 Blacktooth carbon fiber stock that ranks among the lightest production stocks anywhere. The result is a 6.5 Creedmoor that tips the scale around 4.8 pounds before you add glass. That leaves plenty of room in your weight budget for a quality scope and still ends up lighter than most rifles come out of the box.
What Makes the Backcountry 2.0 Ti Different
The 22 inch fluted barrel wears a slim #1 MOD contour with a 1:8 twist, so it stabilizes the heavy, high-BC bullets the 6.5 Creedmoor is known for. The muzzle is threaded and ships with Weatherby's Accubrake ST installed, which takes an already mild cartridge down to nearly nothing. Backing that up is the 3DHEX recoil pad, a 3D printed design with an internal lattice that collapses progressively under recoil to soften the push and tame muzzle rise. A crisp TriggerTech trigger and the Mark V's fast 54 degree bolt throw round out a rifle that handles as well at the bench as it does on a ridgeline. The bolt body is deeply spiral fluted to shave weight, and the barrel, bolt, and hardware wear Graphite Black Cerakote for real weather resistance.
Accuracy You Can Count On from the Mark V Ti
Weatherby backs this rifle with a sub-MOA guarantee, and the 6.5 Creedmoor chambering makes it easy to find factory loads that live up to it. With a 4+1 capacity, 13.5 inch length of pull, and a stock finished in a sharp gray and white sponge pattern over black carbon, this is a purpose-built mountain rifle for deer, antelope, and sheep country. If your hunts involve more hiking than driving, this one earns its keep every single mile.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the Mark V Backcountry 2.0 Ti come with a sub-MOA accuracy guarantee?
Yes. Weatherby guarantees sub-MOA performance from this rifle, meaning three-shot groups under an inch at 100 yards with quality factory ammunition. The 6.5 Creedmoor chambering makes finding match-grade and premium hunting loads easy, so hitting that mark is realistic for most careful handloaders and factory ammo buyers alike.
How much does the Backcountry 2.0 Ti weigh with a scope mounted?
The bare rifle runs about 4.8 pounds thanks to the titanium action and Peak 44 Blacktooth carbon fiber stock. Add a mid-size scope, rings, and a rail and most setups land in the 6.5 to 7 pound range fully dressed. That is still lighter than many hunting rifles weigh with nothing on them at all.
Can I remove the Accubrake ST and run a suppressor instead?
Yes, the muzzle is threaded and the Accubrake ST simply spins off. Keep in mind that a suppressor adds noticeable weight to a rifle this light, which shifts the balance forward. A thread protector is worth picking up if you plan to hunt with the bare muzzle.
Does the Weatherby Backcountry 2.0 Ti come with sights or a scope rail?
No sights or rail are included. The receiver is drilled and tapped, so you will need to add bases or a rail plus rings before mounting glass. Many owners pair it with a lightweight rail and magnesium or aluminum rings to keep the overall weight advantage intact.
