There are lightweight rifles, and then there are rifles built from the ground up to disappear on your back. The Mark V Backcountry Guide Ti falls squarely in the second camp. Weatherby machines the titanium Mark V action in Sheridan, Wyoming, and titanium brings roughly 42 percent of the weight of steel to the table along with natural corrosion resistance, which matters when you are days from the truck in wet, nasty weather. This version wears the 9-lug action to handle the 257 Weatherby Magnum, a cartridge that has been flattening trajectories and dropping mule deer, antelope, and sheep since Roy Weatherby dreamed it up. Out of the 24 inch tube it still delivers the speed the round is famous for in a package that carries like a daypack instead of a duffel bag.
The barrel is a BSF carbon fiber design built around a 416R stainless match blank loaded under tension inside the carbon sleeve, which keeps things rigid and helps the barrel shed heat instead of trapping it. The muzzle is threaded 5/8-24 and topped with a machined titanium Accubrake ST, so you can run the brake, a suppressor, or the bare crown depending on the hunt. The Peak 44 Blacktooth carbon fiber stock comes with two Spartan Precision gunsmith adapters molded into the forend, letting you snap a Spartan bipod on and off with their magnetic system in seconds. The 3DHex recoil pad uses a collapsing lattice structure that takes real sting out of magnum recoil, turning a sharp crack into a manageable push.
An externally adjustable TriggerTech trigger breaks clean with zero creep, and the famous 54 degree bolt throw cycles fast with plenty of scope clearance. Every Mark V is backed by Weatherby's sub-MOA guarantee, a three shot group under an inch at 100 yards with Weatherby factory or premium ammo. Feed it 3+1, flip the two-position safety, and go hunt the country most rifles never see.
Yes. The muzzle is threaded 5/8-24, which is the most common thread pitch for 30 caliber and smaller suppressors. The titanium Accubrake ST spins off easily, and the shorter 24 inch barrel on the Guide series was chosen partly to keep overall length manageable with a can attached.
Weatherby backs every Mark V with a sub-MOA guarantee, meaning a three shot group of .99 inches or less at 100 yards from a cold barrel using Weatherby factory or premium ammunition. The tensioned BSF carbon barrel is stiff and cools quickly, and the adjustable TriggerTech trigger makes it easier to wring out that accuracy in the field.
Less than you would expect. The titanium Accubrake ST cuts felt recoil substantially, and the 3DHex recoil pad uses a collapsing honeycomb structure that spreads the impulse out over time. Between the two, the 257 Wby is comfortable to shoot even in a sub 6 pound rifle.
The Peak 44 Blacktooth stock has two Spartan Precision gunsmith adapters built into the forend. These use Spartan's magnetic MagnaSwitch system, so their ultralight bipods and tripods snap on and off in seconds with no rails or swivel studs needed. It is one of the lightest attachment setups you can run on a mountain rifle.
