Ounces turn into pounds fast when you're climbing after elk or mule deer, and that's exactly the problem this rifle was built to solve. The Weatherby Mark V Live Wild CF takes the original Live Wild, a rifle designed in collaboration with hunter Remi Warren, and upgrades it with a BSF carbon fiber barrel and a Peak 44 Bastion carbon fiber stock. The result is a .308 Win that weighs around 5.5 pounds bare, which leaves you plenty of budget for glass and a can before the whole setup gets heavy.
The 20 inch BSF #4 contour carbon barrel sheds weight and dissipates heat better than a comparable steel tube, and it comes threaded 5/8×24 so adding a suppressor or brake is painless. Underneath it all sits the famous Mark V action with its stacked multi-lug bolt design and short 54 degree bolt lift, which gives you fast cycling and extra scope clearance. The bolt is deeply fluted for smoother travel, the receiver is drilled and tapped for optics, and the TriggerTech trigger adjusts externally from 2.5 to 5 pounds so you can dial in the pull you like without pulling the action from the stock.
The Peak 44 Bastion is one of the lightest production carbon fiber stocks you can get, and it shows off exposed carbon weave with black and grey sponge pattern accents that nod to the Live Wild brand. The 3DHEX recoil pad uses a lattice structure to soak up recoil, which matters more than you'd think on a rifle this light. Carbon Grey Cerakote on the receiver and trigger guard keeps the weather out, and the hinged floorplate carries the Live Wild logo.
Chambered in .308 Win with a 1:10 twist and a 4+1 capacity, this one runs on ammo you can find anywhere and handles everything from whitetail to elk at reasonable ranges. Weatherby backs every Mark V with a sub-MOA accuracy guarantee, so you know it will shoot better than most of us can hold. If a true lightweight backcountry rig has been on your list, this is a strong way to check the box.
The CF (Carbon) version swaps the standard fluted steel barrel for a BSF carbon fiber barrel and replaces the polymer stock with a Peak 44 Bastion carbon fiber stock. That combination trims weight and improves heat dispersion while keeping the same Mark V action, TriggerTech trigger, and Live Wild styling. It's the upgrade pick for hunters counting ounces on long hikes.
Yes. The 20 inch carbon fiber barrel is threaded 5/8×24, which is the standard thread pitch for most .30 caliber suppressors and muzzle devices. The shorter barrel length also keeps overall length manageable once a can is attached, which is a big part of why the 20 inch .308 configuration is so popular.
Weatherby guarantees Mark V rifles will shoot a 3-shot group of .99 inch or less at 100 yards from a cold barrel with Weatherby factory or premium ammunition. Between the BSF carbon barrel, the bedded Peak 44 stock, and the adjustable TriggerTech trigger, this rifle has the ingredients to make good on that promise with ammo it likes.
No, it ships without sights or mounts. The receiver is drilled and tapped, so you'll want to pick up bases or a rail that fits the Mark V action along with rings for your scope. Given the lightweight build, most owners pair it with a compact hunting scope to keep the whole package under 7 pounds.
