The
next generation of the ground-breaking Backcountry family, the
Backcountry 2.0 builds on the classic steel Weatherby Mark V action with
some key updates. Still equipped with a super thin and lightweight
fluted barrel, it is contoured at a #1 MOD or #2 MOD depending on the
chambering.
The most noticeable upgrade is the new carbon fiber Peak
44 Blacktooth stock, the lightest versions of which tip the scales at
under 20 ounces.
Also grabbing the eye is the second generation
3DHEX recoil pad, the first production 3D printed pad the firearms world
has seen. Hidden inside the pad are a series of interlocking voids that
progressively collapse during recoil, expanding the time component of
the recoil impulse and deadening the sharp kick of magnum chamberings.
More
pronounced spiral fluting on the bolt body not only trims a little
weight, it also reduces bearing surface within the action and results in
even smoother function. The newly-threaded bolt handle is equipped with
a lightweight aluminum extended and skeletonized knob.
Fit with
Weatherby?s highly-effective Accubrake ST, this brake is blended to
match the profile of the muzzle. With 30 symmetrically-spaced ports that
help harness the recoil, it tames even magnum chamberings and makes
them pleasant to shoot.
Starting at just 5.2 lbs and 5.4 lbs in
magnum chamberings, the Backcountry 2.0 also sports an updated paint
scheme, with action and barrel protected by a Cerakote shell of Patriot
Brown, with the stock carrying a brown and green pattern over exposed
carbon fiber.
Built to be the lightest possible rifle and chambered
in some of the world?s fastest cartridges, the Backcountry 2.0 is a
worthy successor to the throne.
