Features 

The 24-inch barrel gives the 7MM PRC adequate velocity to stay flat at distance. At 6.8 lbs the rifle is light enough for sustained carries over rough country without becoming a chore. The Brown Sponge Pattern Black finish holds up to field use and cuts glare. The threaded barrel accepts muzzle devices or suppressors without modification. 
 

Usage 

The Mark V High Country suits hunters covering rough terrain after elk, mule deer, or other big game where a light carry weight matters but a full-power magnum round is still needed. It also works well on precision rifle courses that reward consistent long-range performance.

The Weatherby Mark V High Country 7MM PRC gets generally positive reviews, with a few recurring criticisms.

Build quality and action smoothness come up consistently. Most owners comment on the tight fit of the action and how clean the bolt cycles, which is typical of the Mark V platform.

Accuracy is another frequent point. Many shooters report good results with the 7MM PRC right out of the box, often needing only minor scope adjustments before holding tight groups at range.

The High Country's light weight is appreciated by hunters who cover a lot of ground. At 6.8 lbs it is noticeably lighter than most full-steel bolt guns in similar calibers, and that difference registers over a long day on steep terrain.

Recoil feedback is mixed. Some find the 7MM PRC manageable given the caliber's power, while others note it is still a stout round and the light chassis does not absorb much of it.

Price is the most common objection. Weatherby sits at the higher end for production bolt guns, and some buyers feel comparable accuracy is available for less. Others argue the build quality and sub-MOA guarantee justify the cost.

Customer service experiences vary. Positive interactions exist alongside accounts of slower response times, so that is worth factoring in if warranty service matters to you.
