Weatherby Mark V Muzzlebrake

lastofthebreed · February 22, 2005, 02:36 PM

I have a question for you members out there who know more than I do about Weatherby Mark V rifles.

I recently purchased a used SS Weatherby Mark V. The barrel is 26" long and is fluted. It has what appears to be a factory installed muzzlebrake. The chambering is .257 Weatherby Mag. The stock is black synthetic.

My question is this. Does anyone know if, indeed, this is a factory installed option, and, does anyone have a "false muzzle" to replace the muzzlebrake? I don't like the appearance of it and would like to remove it and have the barrel clean and uncluttered.

Remember - Wherever you go, there you are.

Exactly like that. I guess I can order it from Weatherby.
