In 1964, Roy Weatherby introduced the Varmintmaster Action—a 6-lug bolt designed for high-velocity cartridges like the .224 WBY Magnum. With a few modernizations, the Mark V Standard Short Action revitalizes this legacy with precision and performance. Featuring a classic Monte Carlo AA-grade walnut stock with a high-gloss finish, the new Varmintmaster blends timeless Weatherby craftsmanship with cutting-edge advancements.
