Those who venture into the backcountry—and especially those who hunt the mountains with all their gear on their back—appreciate a lightweight rifle. Here’s a look at seven top-notch options.

The goal was to build a magnum-class cartridge in a small package, and Weatherby has done just that with its 6.5 Weatherby RPM, featuring a rebated rim, large body diameter, low body taper and 35-degree shoulder.

Weatherby, Inc. has expanded its bolt-action lineup with the Mark V Hunter, boasting a freshly designed polymer stock that echoes the lines of the Backcountry 2.0 family.

Created for the battlefield, this military-turned-hunting cartridge is a top choice when pursuing big game both near and far.

Here's a look at 2021's most exciting new rifles for hunters looking to make an upgrade.

Weatherby has updated their Backcountry family of rifles with the Backcountry 2.0 and the Backcountry 2.0 Carbon.

Despite an array of competitors being introduced since its 1944 debut, Weatherby’s original .30-caliber magnum cartridge is arguably still the best in class.

Both cartridges are fully capable of taking the full range of North American game, and are a solid choice for a light rifle on safari. Therefore, which is the better choice for the hunter looking for a .300 magnum? 

The Backcountry Ti is one of the newest additions to the Mark V line, and a welcome addition to a fairly limited field of production rifles in its class. It features a titanium action, carbon-fiber stock and a very thin profile, fluted barrel.
