The Mark V Backcountry Guide sits in Weatherby's lineup for hunters who need a rifle that carries all day and still handles hard weather, built on the nine-lug Mark V action with its short 54-degree bolt lift and reputation for strength.

This configuration pairs a fluted 22-inch barrel with a carbon-fiber stock and a grey finish, chambered in 6.5 Creedmoor. That cartridge has become a default for good reason: flat trajectory, excellent bullet selection, and recoil light enough that follow-up shots and long practice sessions stay comfortable.
