Weatherby has continued its new-for-2016 product rollout, announcing the impending release of the New Mark V Weathermark, a Mark V built to withstand even the harshest backcountry conditions.

Like the other rifles in the "New Mark V" line, the Weathermark stock has been given a slimmer forearm and sharper contours. The grip diameter has been reduced, a slight right-hand palm swell has been added, and overall weight decreased. It also features the new Weatherby LXXTM Trigger, which features surfaces that are precision ground, polished and refined. The trigger face is wider and boost trigger-to-finger contact.

"The New Mark V Weathermark is the perfect combination of form and function.", says Executive Vice President and COO Adam Weatherby. "It takes all the benefits of the New Mark V® action and adds a Cerakote finish to the metalwork, making it more rugged and weather resistant. It lets you worry about your hunt, and not about your rifle" 

As ever, the Weathermark sports the same SUB-MOA accuracy guarantee that its fellow Mark V models do.

The Weathermark is due to be on shelves shortly, and ships with an MSRP of $1,700.
