Weatherby Mark V Backcountry .240 Weatherby Magnum Rifle

The Weatherby Mark V Backcountry .240 Weatherby Magnum rifle is purpose-built for hunters and tactical marksmen who demand precision at extended range without compromising mobility in rugged terrain. This lightweight configuration—at approximately 6 pounds—makes it ideal for backcountry applications where every ounce matters during multi-day operations or demanding hunting expeditions.

Weatherby's proprietary design reduces recoil impulse compared to larger magnum rounds, enabling faster target reacquisition and improved shot placement under stress. The .240 Weatherby Magnum cartridge delivers exceptional ballistic performance, combining high velocity with a flat trajectory that extends effective range while maintaining energy retention at distance. The Mark V Backcountry's 46.13-inch overall length balances sight radius for precision with compact handling in thick cover.

This rifle serves precision-focused shooters—from backcountry hunters navigating steep elevation changes to tactical operators and competitive marksmen requiring dependable long-range capability. Its modular design accepts standard modern upgrades for optics, suppressors, and tactical accessories without requiring gunsmithing. The lightweight construction makes it practical for sustained use in challenging environments.
