Weatherby Mbp01N65Cmr19B Mark V Capra 6.5 Creedmoor
The Weatherby Mark V Capra in 6.5 Creedmoor is purpose-built for hunters who count every ounce on the trail. Built around Weatherby's titanium Mark V 6-lug short action and tipping the scales at just 4 pounds, the Capra ranks among the lightest production rifles available—a genuine advantage when you're glassing ridges or covering distance in alpine terrain. The 6.5 Creedmoor cartridge delivers the ballistic reach and hitting power serious mountain hunters demand, with proven performance on game and the flat trajectory to handle long-range opportunities without excessive holdover.
Weight savings come without compromise. The barrel employs double-spiral fluting—a design that reduces mass while maintaining rigidity for consistent accuracy. Weatherby specs sub-MOA performance from the platform, the kind of precision you need when shots in the backcountry rarely get a second chance. The stock is a modified Peak 44 Blacktooth design, engineered to strip weight while retaining the ergonomics and recoil control that keep you steady and comfortable on the hill.
Finish and details reflect a working rifle built for the elements. The barrel, receiver, bolt, bolt knob, and safety wear Graphite Black Cerakote for corrosion resistance and a tactical profile. The stock showcases exposed carbon fiber with grey, white, and rust-colored accent patterns—both lightweight and visually distinctive. This is the rifle for the backcountry hunter who refuses to compromise between capability and portability.
