Weatherby Mark V Carbon Compact 280 Ackley Improved Rifle

The Weatherby Mark V Carbon Compact is a lightweight bolt action rifle with a carbon barrel and a shorter length of pull, built for smaller statured shooters. Weatherby chambers the Carbon Compact in recoil friendly cartridges, and this one is 280 Ackley Improved. It runs on the lighter 6 lug Standard Action.

The barrel is a BSF carbon barrel, and it comes with Weatherby's Accubrake DST, a directional self timing brake. Weatherby credits the BSF carbon barrel for the accuracy of the rifle. The stock design takes its cue from the Monte Carlo profile and helps manage recoil by directing force away from the shooter's face, which keeps you aligned and on target. It is a hand laid raised Monte Carlo fiberglass stock in black with brown, green and white sponge accents. The trigger guard and receiver are OD Green Cerakote, and the bolt, bolt knob and safety are Graphite Black Cerakote.
