Weatherby Mark V Backcountry Guide Rifle 7mm PRC 3rd Magazine 22" 5/8x24 Threaded Barrel Black

The Weatherby Mark V Backcountry Guide Rifle in 7mm PRC is purpose-built for hunters who cover serious ground at elevation and need every ounce to count. This rifle combines Weatherby's reputation for magnum performance with genuine weight savings and modern ergonomics—the kind of practical refinement that matters when you're miles from the truck. The 22-inch barrel wears a 5/8x24 threaded muzzle (compatible with the included machined titanium Accubrake ST), and the rifle ships with a third magazine so you're ready to hunt out of the box.

What sets the Backcountry Guide apart is the thoughtful engineering underneath. The action features a deep spiral-fluted bolt that reduces weight and bearing surface area, translating to a noticeably smoother, more reliable cycling motion—a detail you'll appreciate on a cold morning or when things move fast. The stock is Peak 44's Blacktooth, hand-painted on every rifle for a distinct finish, and it integrates Spartan Precision gunsmithing adapter mounts for ultra-light accessory compatibility. The 3DHex recoil pad uses a honeycomb structure that absorbs and disperses recoil energy, turning the 7mm PRC's punch into a more manageable impulse.

An adjustable TriggerTech trigger lets you dial in your preferred pull weight, giving you real control over the rifle's feel. Combined with the 7mm PRC's proven long-range ballistics and the rifle's manageable profile, the Backcountry Guide is a serious contender for steep-country hunts, long-distance glassing missions, or anywhere you need velocity and barrel length without carrying dead weight.
