Weatherby Mark V Apex 300 Magnum 20-Inch Rifle

Weatherby Mark V Apex: Precision Meets Portability

The Mark V APEX represents Weatherby's commitment to the modern hunter who demands both accuracy and efficiency in the field. This rifle bridges the gap between long-range capability and practical weight, making it equally at home in open country or dense timber.

Stock and Ergonomics

The Peak 44s Bastion stock is among the lightest production vertical grip carbon fiber stocks available. Its design prioritizes shooter comfort and control:

• Ambidextrous palm swell for natural hand positioning
• Substantial thumb groove that promotes proper shooting form
• Dual sling studs on the forend for flexible accessory mounting

Recoil Management

The second-generation 3DHEX recoil pad represents a significant advancement in felt recoil reduction. As the first production 3D-printed recoil pad, it features a series of interlocking voids that progressively collapse during recoil. This design expands the time component of the recoil impulse, effectively deadening the sharp kick characteristic of magnum chamberings. The result is noticeably less felt recoil and improved accuracy on follow-up shots.

Action and Bolt

More pronounced spiral fluting on the bolt body serves multiple purposes: it reduces overall weight, decreases bearing surface within the action, and promotes smoother bolt cycling. These refinements contribute to the rifle's reliability and handling characteristics.

Muzzle Device

The integrated Accubrake ST is Weatherby's highly-effective muzzle brake, designed and blended to match the rifle's profile while managing recoil impulse effectively.
