This rifle combines Weatherby's proven Mark V action with MDT's advanced chassis system for enhanced stability and customization options.
What Makes This Different
The MDT chassis system transforms the traditional Mark V into a tactical platform with improved ergonomics and modularity. Unlike standard hunting stocks, this chassis provides multiple adjustment points for length of pull, cheek height, and buttstock positioning. The aluminum construction offers superior rigidity compared to polymer alternatives, contributing to consistent shot placement and reduced harmonic vibration.
