Weatherby Mark V Apex Left-Handed 6.5-300 Wby Mag 28" Bolt-Action Rifle

The Weatherby Mark V Apex Left-Handed in 6.5-300 Wby Mag is a serious long-range hunting rifle built on the legendary Mark V steel action and engineered for shooters who refuse to compromise between accuracy and field-ready weight. This left-hand bolt-action rifle pairs the raw performance potential of the 6.5-300 Weatherby Magnum cartridge with a thoughtfully spec'd platform that handles equally well on a 1000-yard range or glassing ridges in brutal terrain. The 28" fluted barrel wears a distinctive two-tone Cerakote finish—Coyote Tan and Graphite Black—and terminates in Weatherby's Accubrake ST muzzle brake, a symmetrically-ported design that significantly manages recoil impulse without excessive blast.

What sets the Mark V Apex apart is the marriage of cutting-edge stock technology and intelligent weight reduction. The Peak 44 Bastion carbon fiber stock is among the lightest production vertical-grip stocks available at just 23 ounces, with an ambidextrous palm swell and substantial thumb groove engineered for repeatable form across all shooting positions—bench, prone, or field-expedient. Dual swivel studs on the forend give you flexibility in mounting support systems. The star of the recoil management story is the 3DHEX pad, a 3D-printed design with interlocking voids that progressively collapse during firing, stretching the recoil pulse and dropping felt kick even in this magnum class. Spiral fluting on the bolt body trims ounces and smooths operation by reducing bearing surface.

The receiver, trigger guard, and safety wear Graphite Black Cerakote, while the stock showcases exposed carbon fiber with tan and brown accents—a visual that promises as much as it performs. This is a rifle for the hunter or precision shooter who understands that a lighter, more controllable gun in hand beats a heavy one at home, and who demands the velocity and energy that a true magnum caliber delivers on game or steel at extended range.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this rifle set up for left-handed shooters?

Yes. The Mark V Apex comes configured as a true left-hand rifle with left-hand bolt throw and left-hand safety placement, so you're not retrofitting a right-hand gun.

What is the 6.5-300 Weatherby Magnum and what's it good for?

The 6.5-300 Wby Mag is a high-velocity magnum cartridge designed for extended-range hunting and precision shooting. Paired with the 28" fluted barrel and Accubrake ST, it delivers the velocity and energy needed for long-range game and target applications.

How much does the stock weigh, and why does that matter?

The Peak 44 Bastion carbon fiber stock weighs just 23 ounces—among the lightest production vertical-grip stocks available. A lighter rifle is easier to mount, steadier in the field, and less fatiguing during long days of hunting or range sessions.

Does the 3DHEX pad really reduce recoil?

The 3DHEX pad uses a 3D-printed design with interlocking voids that progressively collapse during recoil, extending the recoil pulse and reducing the sharp kick associated with magnum chamberings. This results in less felt recoil and better shot-to-shot control.
