The Weatherby Mark V Backcountry Guide in .243 Winchester is a lightweight, purpose-built bolt-action rifle designed for serious hunters who demand accuracy in rugged terrain. Its 22" threaded barrel, BSF carbon fiber construction, and Graphite Black Cerakote receiver combine to deliver a durable, corrosion-resistant platform that stays manageable on long hikes while still offering excellent downrange performance. The Peak 44 Blacktooth carbon fiber stock with green and tan camo provides a stable, comfortable interface and helps keep overall weight to just 5.6 lbs.

This Mark V Backcountry Guide configuration is ideal for backcountry hunting, predator control, and extended range sessions where a light rifle with a smooth action is preferred. The 4+1 capacity, free-floating barrel, and 1-in-7.5 twist rate support modern .243 Win loads for consistent accuracy. With no factory sights and a drilled and tapped receiver, it is ready for the optic of your choice. Weatherby’s long-standing reputation for precision craftsmanship and innovation is evident in every detail of this rifle.
