The Weatherby Mark V High Country delivers precision long-range performance in a lightweight platform designed for mountain hunting and tactical applications. This 308 Winchester rifle combines Weatherby's legendary accuracy with modern materials and finishes for extreme weather reliability.
What Makes This Different
The Mark V High Country features a hand-laid carbon fiber stock that reduces weight by 20% compared to traditional wood stocks while maintaining superior rigidity. The fluted barrel design decreases overall weight without sacrificing accuracy, maintaining sub-MOA performance at extended ranges. Graphite Black Cerakote finish provides corrosion resistance 50% better than standard bluing in salt spray tests.
Key Features

Field testing demonstrates consistent 0.75 MOA accuracy with match-grade ammunition at 100 yards. The carbon fiber stock maintains zero through temperature swings from -20°F to 120°F without point-of-impact shift. Fast 54-degree bolt throw enables rapid follow-up shots in hunting scenarios, while the lightweight 6.75-pound configuration reduces fatigue during extended carry.
