Weatherby Mark V Bc 22" Rifle

The Weatherby Mark V BC 22" rifle in 240 WBY Magnum is a precision long-range hunting platform engineered for serious riflemen who demand match-grade accuracy and flat-shooting ballistics. Built on Weatherby's proven Mark V action—trusted by hunters and tactical marksmen for decades—this rifle delivers the velocity and energy retention required for extended-range elk and large game applications. The 22-inch barrel strikes an optimal balance between velocity development and field portability, making it equally suitable for backcountry hunts and high-altitude pursuits where every shot counts.

The 240 Weatherby Magnum cartridge is one of the most formidable rifle rounds in production, generating muzzle velocities in the 3,400+ feet-per-second range with exceptional trajectory and down-range energy. The 22-inch barrel optimizes powder burn efficiency while keeping overall rifle length to 46.5 inches—critical for field handling in dense terrain or from vehicle platforms. Weatherby's Mark V action features a rigid, three-lug bolt design with a controlled-feed extractor system that ensures positive case ejection and reliable feeding under rapid-fire or adverse conditions; the triggerless design and pre-64 Winchester-style safety provide intuitive operation even with gloved hands or in high-stress scenarios.

This rifle is built for hunters and precision shooters preparing for high-altitude or long-range game scenarios where a flat-shooting, hard-hitting round makes the difference between ethical one-shot kills and wounded animals. Law enforcement marksmen and tactical hunters appreciate the Mark V BC's accuracy potential and the 240 Magnum's proven effectiveness on large, dangerous game. Pair this rifle with quality optics rated for magnum recoil (4x-8x or 6x-18x magnification recommended), premium ammunition, and a sturdy rest system to fully realize its precision capabilities at distances beyond 400 yards.
