Weatherby Brings Back the Mark V® Ultramark™ as Its New Top-of-the-Line Traditional-Wood Rifle


Weatherby’s Mark V® Ultramark™ returns in 2006 as the company’s new top-of-the-line traditional-wood production rifle for big game hunters and shooters.

“Last seen in Weatherby’s line from 1989 to 1991, the Ultramark returns this year as the bridge between our Mark V Deluxe and a custom-built rifle,” said Brad Ruddell, Weatherby’s vice president of sales and marketing. “The Mark V Deluxe is one of the most widely-recognized and copied rifles in the world. However, some customers have told us they want an even more deluxe Deluxe. That’s the Ultramark, which is all about great wood, with additional custom touches normally found only on rifles from our custom shop. This rifle is truly distinctive.”

Ultramark features a stock of highly figured, exhibition-grade walnut. The high-gloss, raised-comb Monte Carlo stock sports elaborate 20 LPI checkering and double spacers of maplewood and ebony on the buttstock, forend and pistol grip cap.

Weatherby craftsmen take great care to bed, fit and finish each of the Ultramark’s walnut stocks, which are hand selected. Steel rods are epoxied strategically in the action mortice and wrist to aid in strengthening the stock in these areas. The rosewood forend and pistol grip cap are specially selected to match color and grain, then shaped and finished to feel like a single piece of wood. The recoil pad is precisely fit and finished to match the contour of the stock for a custom look.

All metalwork is polished to a high-lustre finish. Other key features include:

* Weatherby’s Mark V action, widely recognized as the world’s strongest bolt action. The short 54-degree bolt lift allows faster chambering on follow-up shots and greater bolt-to-scope clearance for fewer battered knuckles.
* Adjustable trigger designed to be clean and crisp, and to break precisely for top-notch accuracy. The trigger features precise adjustments for sear engagement (factory set at .008 to .014) and let-off weight (factory set at about four pounds).
* Krieger™ Criterion™ #2 contour button-rifled steel barrel. Krieger Criterion barrels are known for their quality and ability to maintain excellent accuracy.

Barrel length is 26 inches. Rifle weight is 8 1/2 pounds. Other specifications: overall length, 46 5/8 inches; rifling (twist) 1-10 inch; length of pull, 13 5/8 inches; drop at comb, 7/8-inch; drop at heel, 1 3/8 inches.

Ultramark is available in .257 Weatherby Magnum and .300 Weatherby Magnum. Right-hand model only. Like all Weatherby rifles, Ultramark is guaranteed to shoot a 1 1/2-inch 3-shot group at 100 yards from a cold barrel when used with premium or Weatherby factory ammunition.
