Weatherby Mark V CarbonMark Rifle 6.5 Creedmoor 24 in. Grey and Tan with Brake RH

The Weatherby Mark V CarbonMark Rifle 6.5 Creedmoor 24 in. Grey and Tan with Brake RH is a custom-built precision rifle that balances light weight with sustained accuracy. The carbon-fiber-wrapped 416R stainless steel match barrel is roll-wrapped under tension, with 95% of the carbon not touching the steel — this creates an air gap that rapidly cools the barrel, maintains rigidity, and reduces overall weight to 6.75 lbs. The 5/8×24 threaded muzzle with factory brake tames recoil, letting you spot your own hits at distance without a spotter.

Key Features

• Carbon fiber wrapped barrel: The 416R stainless steel core is roll-wrapped with carbon fiber under tension, creating a barrel that is 30% lighter than a comparable steel barrel while maintaining the same stiffness. This means you carry less weight on the mountain, but the rifle still holds sub-MOA groups shot after shot.
• Rapid cooling air gap: 95% of the carbon fiber does not touch the barrel — the air gap allows heat to dissipate quickly, keeping the barrel temperature consistent even during high-volume strings. You get tighter groups on the 10th shot than most rifles produce on the first.
• Factory muzzle brake: The 5/8×24 threaded barrel comes with a Weatherby brake installed. Recoil reduction is significant enough that you can watch your trace through the scope without losing your sight picture.
• Grey and Tan Cerakote finish: The receiver and stock are coated in a durable, low-glare finish that resists corrosion and blends into alpine or desert terrain. No glare giving away your position at 800 yards.
• Mark V action: The legendary 54-degree bolt lift, six-lug bolt head, and integral recoil lug provide a smooth, fast cycling action with a consistent 2.5-lb trigger pull. The action is bedded into a composite stock with aluminum pillars for repeatable accuracy.

Who It’s For

This rifle is for the hunter who also shoots PRS-style matches, or the long-range enthusiast who wants one rifle that can do both without compromise. If you’re the shooter who values every ounce saved on the carry to the stand but refuses to accept anything less than 0.5 MOA accuracy, the CarbonMark is your platform. It’s also ideal for the reloader who wants to push 6.5 Creedmoor projectiles to their limit without waiting for the barrel to cool between groups.

Pros/Cons

Pros: Sub-MOA guaranteed accuracy out of the box; carbon wrap reduces weight without sacrificing rigidity; factory brake is effective and timed correctly; Cerakote finish holds up to field abuse; 54-degree bolt lift is fast for follow-up shots.

Cons: The carbon fiber barrel is more susceptible to point-of-impact shift if you rest the barrel on a bipod or bag — always support the fore-end or the action. Also, the stock’s LOP is fixed; no spacers included for adjustment.

Comparison

Feature	Weatherby Mark V CarbonMark	Timney Triggers (Competition Drop-In)	Geissele (Super Semi-Automatic)
Platform	Bolt-action, 6.5 Creedmoor	AR-15 drop-in trigger	AR-15/AR-10 trigger
Weight	6.75 lbs complete rifle	2.5 oz (trigger only)	3.8 oz (trigger only)

Note: The Timney and Geissele are trigger-only upgrades for AR platforms, not complete rifles. The comparison shows that for the price of a CarbonMark, you could build a semi-auto with a premium trigger — but you won’t get the same inherent accuracy or lightweight carbon barrel.

FAQ

What is the barrel twist rate on the Weatherby Mark V CarbonMark 6.5 Creedmoor?

The barrel has a 1:8 twist rate, optimized for 120-147 grain bullets. This twist stabilizes the heavy-for-caliber projectiles that 6.5 Creedmoor is known for, giving you consistent accuracy at 1,000+ yards.

Does the CarbonMark come with a scope base or rings?

The rifle ships with a factory-installed Picatinny rail (20 MOA slope) on the receiver. You will need to purchase your own scope rings — standard 30mm or 34mm rings fit the rail. No rings are included.

Is the muzzle brake removable?

Yes, the brake is threaded onto the 5/8×24 muzzle and can be removed with a wrench. The barrel is threaded for standard 5/8×24 muzzle devices, so you can install a suppressor or a different brake if desired.

Can I use this rifle for hunting in adverse weather?

Yes. The Cerakote finish on the receiver and stock resists rust and corrosion. The carbon fiber barrel does not rust, and the action is sealed against debris. However, the stock is not fully waterproof — avoid submerging the action.
