The family-run firm is currently run by Adam Weatherby, the 3rd generation Weatherby at the helm. For many years, Weatherby shotguns were made in Japan or Italy. The action for Vanguard is made by Howa in Japan. Mark V rifles are currently made in Sheridan, Wyoming. Barreled actions for Mark V were made by ATEK in Brainerd, Minnesota. Since that year, Weatherby rifles have been made in the U.S. In 1972, production was moved to Japan, where rifles were made until 1995. Beginning in 1959, rifles were made in what was then West Germany. Mark V featured a very modern stock design with glossy finish, high comb for scope use and contrasting grip and fore-end caps. Mark V action was made in U.S., with rifles assembled and finished at Weatherby shop in South Gate. In 1958, Weatherby introduced his Mark V action, which was designed to handle the high pressures of his proprietary cartridges. In 1956, he contracted with both Sako and Schultz & Larsen to manufacture complete rifles, while he continued to make custom guns in California. *Available in Select Models.Founded by Roy Weatherby in 1945 in South Gate, California, the original rifles were custom guns made to order on Mauser actions. 95% of the carbon fiber does not touch the barrel allowing air to foil around the steel and rapidly cool the barrel, adding rigidity and reduce overall weight. Lightweight, accurate, and fast-cooling carbon fiber tension-wrapped barrels utilize stainless steel match barrels roll-wrapped with a carbon fiber sleeve and loaded under tension. Titanium properties present 42% the weight of traditional steel which provides maximum weight savings for the hunter looking to save every ounce while maintaining structural integrity. 3DHEX is a patent pending high strength energy diffusing lattice structure designed to distribute specific directional forces and reduce muzzle lift. True innovation that dissipates large caliber felt recoil provided in the lightest recoil reducer available. Industry-leading manufacturing techniques, patented bedding technology and the addition of the 3DHEX recoil-reducing buttpad mean this is one of the most advanced lightweight stocks to date.

The forged, one-piece bolt is fluted and has relief ports and a full shroud to protect the user in the case of an ammunition failure. Less rotation allows for quicker reloads and the ability to mount scopes as close to the bore as possible. Another is the Mark V’s lowest-in-class bolt rotation, clocking in at 54°. First and foremost, it has long been considered the strongest action in the world - built to harness the increased pressures of Roy Weatherby’s signature cartridges. Originally designed as a 9-lug, push-feed action, the Mark V rises head and shoulders above other bolt-action rifles in a number of regards.
