The Weatherby Mark V DGR is a bolt-action rifle chambered in .416 Weatherby Magnum, built for dangerous-game hunting with a 24-inch barrel finished in Graphite Black Cerakote. It carries a 3+1 capacity and sits on a fiberglass Monte Carlo stock with a raised comb. An Accubrake ST muzzle brake and a steel, drilled-and-tapped receiver round out a setup meant for heavy-recoiling cartridges and mounted optics.

Detailed Features 

• The Accubrake ST muzzle brake is built into the 24-inch barrel to tame recoil from the .416 Weatherby Magnum cartridge.

• The steel receiver is drilled and tapped for scope mounting and finished in the same Graphite Black Cerakote as the barrel. 
• A fiberglass Monte Carlo stock with a raised comb keeps the shooter's eye lined up with a mounted optic. 
• A two-position safety and TriggerTech Field trigger round out the controls.

Owners of a Mark V DGR generally expect Weatherby's build quality to carry over from the standard Mark V line, and most report smooth bolt cycling and tight tolerances even in a rifle chambered for a cartridge this large. The Graphite Black Cerakote finish gets praise for wearing well on rifles that see rough handling in the field, since a dangerous-game rifle often takes more abuse than a bench gun ever will.

Recoil is the constant topic with a .416 Weatherby Magnum. The Accubrake ST earns credit for making the round shootable over a hunting-length string of shots, though a portion of owners still feel it in the shoulder and call the muzzle blast sharp, especially next to other hunters at the range. The Monte Carlo stock with its raised comb is generally liked for keeping the eye behind a scope under recoil rather than getting knocked off it.

On value, a rifle in this chambering is a specialty purchase rather than an everyday one, and most buyers go in knowing that. Ammunition and aftermarket parts for .416 Weatherby Magnum are less common than for standard calibers, so owners tend to treat the Mark V DGR as a dedicated dangerous-game rig rather than a rifle they will rebarrel or heavily customize.
