Weatherby Mark V Frontier 460 Wby Mag 24" 3rd Rifle

The 460 Weatherby Magnum held the title of most powerful shoulder fired commercial cartridge for decades, and it remains the round you bring when the animal on the other end can end the conversation. The Mark V Frontier houses it in Weatherby's nine lug action with a 24" threaded barrel wearing a 2" muzzle brake — equipment that matters enormously on a cartridge in this energy class. Graphite black Cerakote covers the barrel and steel receiver, which comes drilled and tapped for mounts.

An oiled walnut Monte Carlo stock gives the rifle traditional safari character, and the magazine holds 3rds — the working capacity of dangerous game rifles the world over. The Mark V's short 54 degree bolt lift is more than a talking point here: when a fast second shot is the difference between a story and a statistic, the quick throw earns its keep. Most shooters will never need what this rifle offers. The ones who do, need exactly this. Buffalo, brown bear, and the biggest African game are its natural territory.
