Description
Weatherby has been refining the Mark V since 1957, and the Weathermark Limited shows they still have new tricks. This is the first Mark V to wear a spiral fluted barrel, and the machining pulls double duty. It sheds real ounces from the 24 inch #1 contour tube while giving the rifle a look you will not mistake for anything else on the rack. All in, the rifle weighs just 5.9 pounds, which is the kind of number that matters on day three of an elk hunt when the truck is a long way off.
A 6.5 WBY RPM Built for the Backcountry
The 6.5 Weatherby RPM was designed around the slimmer six lug Mark V action, so you get magnum-class velocity out of a lighter, trimmer receiver. The 1:8 twist stabilizes heavy-for-caliber bullets, and the factory installed Accubrake ST knocks felt recoil down as much as 53 percent, which makes this an easy rifle to shoot well. Prefer to run it clean or hang a suppressor? The muzzle is threaded and a thread protector comes along in the box. Weatherby backs the whole package with their Sub-MOA guarantee: a three shot group under an inch at 100 yards from a cold barrel with factory or premium ammo.
Weathermark Limited Details That Matter
The hand-laid Monte Carlo composite stock rides on aluminum bedding blocks for a repeatable, stress-free foundation, and the black base with grey and brown accents pairs nicely with the Burnt Bronze Cerakote on the barrel, brake, receiver, and trigger guard. The bolt, extended spiral fluted knob, and safety wear contrasting Graphite Black Cerakote, so every piece of metal is protected from whatever the weather throws at it. A TriggerTech flat face trigger, adjustable from 2.5 to 5 pounds, breaks with zero creep, and the 54 degree bolt lift cycles fast while leaving plenty of room under your scope. The receiver comes drilled and tapped, ready for the glass of your choice. Built in Sheridan, Wyoming, this one carries light, shoots straight, and looks the part.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the 6.5 WBY RPM cartridge and why choose it?
The 6.5 Weatherby RPM (Rebated Precision Magnum) was introduced in 2019 and designed specifically around the slimmer six lug Mark V action. It delivers a healthy step up in velocity over cartridges like the 6.5 Creedmoor while keeping the rifle light and trim. For hunters who want flat trajectories and solid downrange energy on deer, antelope, and elk without a heavy magnum receiver, it hits a sweet spot.
Does the Weathermark Limited come with a scope or sights?
No, the rifle ships without sights or optics. The receiver comes drilled and tapped from the factory, so you just need bases and rings that fit the six lug Mark V standard action. Given the reach of the 6.5 RPM, most owners pair it with a quality variable power hunting scope.
How accurate is the Weatherby Mark V Weathermark Limited?
Weatherby guarantees Sub-MOA performance on every Mark V, meaning a three shot group of .99 inches or less at 100 yards from a cold barrel using Weatherby factory or premium ammunition. The aluminum bedding blocks, spiral fluted barrel, and TriggerTech flat face trigger all contribute to that consistency. Plenty of owners report groups well under that mark with ammo their rifle likes.
Can I remove the Accubrake ST or run a suppressor instead?
Yes. The Accubrake ST threads onto the muzzle and a thread protector is included in the box, so you can run the barrel clean or attach a suppressor of your choosing. Keep in mind the brake reduces felt recoil by up to 53 percent, which is a big part of what makes this 5.9 pound rifle so pleasant to shoot.
