Keeping Traditions Alive Since 1953
Secure Transactions provided with 
There was a time when every serious hunting rifle wore walnut and blued steel, and the Mark V Deluxe is Weatherby's way of keeping that tradition going without giving up an ounce of modern performance. The Gloss AA walnut Monte Carlo stock carries the classic Weatherby lines with fine diamond point checkering, a rosewood forend tip and grip cap, and those signature maple spacers, while the high gloss blued metalwork gives it the kind of deep shine you just don't see on rifles anymore. This is the gun people stop and pick up when they walk past the rack.
The 6.5 Weatherby RPM (Rebated Precision Magnum) was designed from the ground up for the slim six lug Mark V action, and it delivers real magnum-class speed with 6.5mm bullets while keeping recoil very manageable. The 24 inch fluted barrel runs a 1:8 twist, so it stabilizes the long, high BC bullets that make this cartridge shine on deer, antelope, and elk-sized game at honest distances. Capacity is 4+1, overall length comes in around 44.6 inches, and the rifle carries at roughly 7.1 pounds, a comfortable weight that balances well offhand and still settles down nicely on sticks or a pack.
Don't let the pretty wood fool you. Underneath you get a TriggerTech Field trigger with a crisp, clean break, the famous 54 degree bolt lift for fast cycling and plenty of scope clearance, and a Pachmayr Decelerator pad to soak up what little recoil the RPM produces. Every Mark V is backed by Weatherby's sub-MOA guarantee, a three shot group of .99 inch or better at 100 yards from a cold barrel with Weatherby factory or premium ammo. The receiver comes drilled and tapped with no sights, so plan on mounting glass worthy of the cartridge. For the hunter who wants heirloom looks with modern long-range chops, this one checks both boxes.
The RPM sits well above the Creedmoor and runs neck and neck with the 6.5 PRC, pushing 140 grain bullets at magnum-class velocities. It was designed specifically for Weatherby's slim six lug Mark V action, so you get that extra speed in a trimmer, lighter rifle. Recoil is mild for the performance, making it a great fit for deer, antelope, and elk at longer ranges.
No, it ships without sights, but the receiver comes drilled and tapped from the factory. You'll need to pick up bases and rings, and given what the 6.5 RPM can do at distance, it's worth pairing with quality glass. Standard Mark V pattern mounts are widely available.
Yes, every Mark V rifle including the Deluxe is guaranteed to shoot a three shot group of .99 inch or less at 100 yards from a cold barrel. The guarantee applies when using Weatherby factory ammo or premium factory loads. Between the TriggerTech Field trigger and the fluted 24 inch barrel, this one has the hardware to back it up.
Very manageable. The 6.5 RPM burns less powder than the big Weatherby magnums, and the factory Pachmayr Decelerator pad takes the edge off what's left. At around 7.1 pounds bare, the rifle has enough heft to stay comfortable through a full range session without being a chore to carry in the field.
