The Weatherby Mark V Apex is a bolt-action rifle chambered in .22 Creedmoor with a 22-inch fluted, threaded barrel of cold hammer forged steel finished in coyote tan and graphite black Cerakote. It carries a 4+1 capacity, is built on the Mark V steel action, and uses a carbon fiber stock to keep overall weight down.

Owners of the Weatherby Mark V Apex like the smooth, well-bedded feel typical of Mark V actions, and the coyote tan and graphite black Cerakote finish wears well in the field. The carbon fiber stock is a frequent highlight since it drops noticeable weight compared to older Mark V rifles built with wood or standard synthetic stocks.

Out hunting or at the range, the Accubrake ST muzzle brake earns mixed reviews: it cuts felt recoil well but adds noise at the shooting line, so some owners keep hearing protection close by. The fluted, threaded barrel and 3D HEX recoil pad both get credit for making the rifle easier to shoot from field positions across a long day.

On value, buyers compare the Apex to other premium bolt rifles and generally feel the TriggerTech trigger and Cerakote finish justify the price step up from Weatherby's base Mark V lineup. Aftermarket support is strong given how established the Mark V action is across the broader market.
