Weatherby Mark V Backcountry .240 Weatherby Magnum Rifle

The Weatherby Mark V Backcountry Ti 2 in 240 Weatherby Magnum is a purpose-built long-range hunting rifle engineered for shooters who demand lightweight performance without sacrificing accuracy or reliability in remote, high-altitude terrain. Designed for backcountry hunters and tactical marksmen, this rifle combines Weatherby's legendary cartridge with titanium construction to minimize weight while maintaining the structural integrity necessary for consistent sub-MOA performance across extended distances and challenging environmental conditions.

The 24-inch barrel delivers the velocity and energy characteristic of the 240 WBY Mag cartridge—a premium magnum known for explosive terminal performance and flat trajectory beyond 300 yards. The titanium receiver is the critical weight-saving component; titanium provides strength-to-weight ratios superior to traditional steel, reducing overall rifle weight to approximately 1 pound for the receiver alone while maintaining full durability under recoil. The Graphite Black Cerakote finish offers superior corrosion resistance and durability in wet, humid backcountry environments, protecting the rifle's metal surfaces from oxidation and environmental degradation. With a 5+1 round capacity and no iron sights (optimized for modern optic-ready platforms), this rifle is configured for precision scope mounting and fieldcraft-oriented carry.

This rifle is ideal for long-range precision hunters navigating steep terrain where every ounce matters, as well as tactical riflemen requiring lightweight, reliable platforms for extended-range engagements. The 46.13-inch overall length balances maneuverability in dense cover with sight-radius optimization. Pair with a quality variable-power optic (4–12x or 6–18x recommended for 240 WBY Mag applications) and a sturdy precision sling for optimal field performance. The no-sights configuration requires scope installation; ensure your optic and mount are rated for magnum recoil. This rifle accepts standard 240 Weatherby Magnum ammunition and delivers consistent velocity and accuracy essential for ethical, long-range hunting.
