The Weatherby Mark V Backcountry Guide 280 Ackley Improved pairs a lightweight Mark V action with a BSF carbon fiber 22" threaded barrel and Accubrake ST muzzle brake for controlled recoil and consistent accuracy. Its Peak 44 Blacktooth carbon fiber stock wears a rugged green and tan sponge camouflage pattern, complemented by a Graphite Black Cerakote steel receiver for durability in harsh conditions. A TriggerTech trigger and right-hand bolt action deliver a crisp break and smooth cycling, while the rifle’s 4+1 capacity keeps you ready for follow-up shots.

This Backcountry Guide configuration is purpose-built for hunters who cover steep, remote terrain and demand a rifle that stays light without sacrificing performance. The threaded barrel makes it easy to add a suppressor or alternative muzzle device, and the drilled and tapped receiver is ready for your preferred optic. With its balanced 42" overall length and 5.6 lb weight, the Mark V Backcountry Guide 280 Ackley Improved is ideal for big-game hunting and extended range sessions, reflecting Weatherby’s long-standing reputation for innovation and mountain-ready craftsmanship.
