Built on the legendary Mark V action, we purpose-built the Guide series to offer custom features in a production rifle. We are proud to introduce the Mark V® Backcountry™Guide and Guide Ti. Starting at just 5.1 lbs, the Guides boast a wide variety of features.

Peak44's 20 oz Blacktooth stock keeps the weight low, while maintaining durability and function. Equipped on this stock, you'll find two Spartan Precision gunsmithing adapters for seamless compatibility with their ultra-light accessories for an out-of-the-box custom feel.

We've introduced shorter barrels into this lineup while still maintaining ballistic superiority. BSF Barrels have set multiple company accuracy records and we are proud to offer them on the Backcountry Guide series.

Listen in as we talk details about these two brand new rifles!
