Description

The hunter variant, mirroring the design of the mark V Backcountry 2.0 rifle family introduced earlier in 2021, showcases a polymer stock with a sleek flat-bottomed forend, ambidextrous palm swells, and robust aluminum pillar construction. Its finish features an urban & black Speckle color scheme. The mark V Hunter’s barreled action is threaded at 1/2 x 28, allowing compatibility with suppressors or brakes. The action is shielded by a layer of Cobalt Cerakote, offering protection against various environmental elements. The bolt, with deep fluting and a removable knob, not only reduces weight but also enhances dust and debris clearance, resulting in smoother functionality. The mark V hunter is available in a wide range of cartridges, accommodating both Weatherby magnum chamberings and American classics. Engineered as one of the world’s most robust actions, the mark V features a distinctive multi-lug bolt system inspired by the interrupted thread lockup style. It comes in standard and magnum action sizes, with the standard configuration featuring a six-lug design and the magnum employing nine locking lugs. These design choices enable the actions to safely handle the most powerful commercially available cartridges. Additional safety features include three rings of steel surrounding the base of the cartridge when it’s in battery, a fully enclosed bolt shroud, and three gas relief ports in the bolt body designed to vent pressure in the event of ammunition failure.
