Weatherby Mark V .257 Wby Mag Bolt-Action Rifle with 26" Barrel - Gray/White

The Weatherby Mark V .257 Wby Mag bolt-action rifle in this gray and white configuration represents a serious rethink of what a magnum hunting rifle can be. Built on Weatherby's titanium Mark V action and fitted with a 26-inch fluted barrel, this gun strips weight without sacrificing strength or accuracy. At 5.6 lbs, it's light enough to carry all day in the backcountry yet built tough enough for the .257 Weatherby Magnum's velocity and power. The left-hand-ready action exposes raw titanium machining, while the barrel and bolt wear a protective black ceramic Cerakote finish that pairs with the distinctive Peak 44 Blacktooth carbon fiber stock—finished in gray and white accents that break up the lines and add visual character.

What sets this rifle apart is engineering that refuses to compromise. The fluted bolt body and newly-threaded, skeletonized aluminum bolt knob cut ounces without reducing reliability. An Accubrake ST muzzle brake with 30 symmetrically-spaced ports transforms what would otherwise be a sharp magnum impulse into something genuinely pleasant to shoot. Recoil management comes from Weatherby's 3DHEX recoil pad—a second-generation 3D-printed design with interlocking voids that progressively collapse, stretching out the recoil pulse and lowering perceived kick. The trigger guard is fluted for weight savings and finished to match the barreled action.

Specs tell the efficiency story: 3+1 magazine capacity, 1-in-10 twist rate optimized for .257 Wby Mag, 13.5-inch length of pull, and an overall length of 48 inches. This is a rifle engineered for hunters who cover distance on foot—whether chasing mule deer in steep country or pronghorn across open ground where every ounce matters and every shot counts.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the .257 Weatherby Magnum good for?

The .257 Wby Mag is a potent medium-game cartridge favored by long-range hunters pursuing deer, elk, and similar-sized game. Its velocity and ballistics suit open-country hunting where shots may be at distance.

Is this rifle really that light?

Yes. At 5.6 lbs, the Mark V .257 Wby Mag achieves weight savings through titanium construction, fluted barrel and bolt body, carbon fiber stock, and skeletonized components—all without sacrificing durability or accuracy.

Does the Accubrake ST really reduce recoil?

The Accubrake ST uses 30 symmetrically-spaced ports to redirect gases and manage recoil impulse. Combined with the 3DHEX recoil pad's progressive-collapse design, the system significantly deadens the kick of magnum chamberings, making shooting more pleasant and faster follow-ups easier.
