Weatherby built the Mark V Backcountry Guide for hunters who count ounces before a long climb, and the .240 Weatherby Magnum version might be the sweetest-carrying rifle in the whole lineup. At roughly 5.6 pounds bare, this thing disappears on a pack strap. The 22 inch BSF carbon fiber barrel wraps a 416R stainless match-grade blank in a tensioned carbon sleeve, shedding weight while cooling faster than a traditional profile. Out front, a machined titanium Accubrake ST screws onto the 5/8-24 threaded muzzle, and between that brake and the mild-mannered .240 Wby Mag cartridge, recoil is barely a conversation topic. Pull the brake and you have a ready-made host for a suppressor too.
The Peak 44 Blacktooth carbon fiber stock is a big part of the weight savings, and it comes dressed in exposed carbon with olive green and backpack sponge accents. Weatherby installs two Spartan Precision gunsmithing adapters in the forend from the factory, so Spartan's magnetic bipods and tripod mounts click right on without any gunsmithing on your end. The 3DHex recoil pad uses a collapsing honeycomb structure that turns whatever push the little .240 generates into a soft shove.
Underneath it all is the proven Mark V action with its short 54 degree bolt lift, deep spiral-fluted bolt body, and removable bolt knob. An adjustable TriggerTech trigger lets you dial the pull to your liking, and all the exposed metal wears graphite black Cerakote for weather resistance in nasty conditions. Capacity runs 4+1, and the 1:7.5 twist barrel stabilizes heavier, high-BC 6mm bullets that older .240 barrels never could.
The .240 Wby Mag pushes 6mm bullets fast and flat with minimal recoil, which makes this rifle a natural for deer, antelope, and long walks after either one. Add Weatherby's sub-MOA accuracy guarantee and made-in-Sheridan, Wyoming build quality, and you have a genuine custom-grade mountain rifle straight off the shelf.
The .240 Weatherby Magnum version runs right around 5.6 pounds bare. Between the BSF carbon fiber barrel, Peak 44 Blacktooth carbon stock, and titanium brake, it is one of the lightest configurations in the Backcountry Guide family, which makes it a favorite for mountain hunts and long approaches.
Yes. The muzzle is threaded 5/8-24, so you can remove the titanium Accubrake ST and spin on a suppressor with a matching thread pitch. The shorter 22 inch barrel is part of why Weatherby built the Guide series this way, since it keeps overall length manageable with a can attached.
The .240 Wby Mag is a speedy 6mm cartridge that shoots flat with light recoil, making it a great pick for deer, antelope, and predators at extended ranges. This rifle's updated 1:7.5 twist also stabilizes heavier, high-BC 6mm bullets, which widens your ammo options compared to older .240 barrels.
The two Spartan Precision gunsmithing adapters come factory installed in the forend of the Peak 44 stock, so the rifle is ready for Spartan's magnetic bipods and accessories right out of the box. The bipod itself is sold separately.
