Some take being called “flat” as an insult. For me it’s a compliment. I am the Mark V Flat Dark Earth, or FDE for short, with coloration made for hunting – naturally. *Accubrake varies on caliber.
Description
If you set me down in the brush, keep an eye on me because I’m prone to pulling disappearing acts. I do it with my natural Flat Dark Earth metalwork finish and the spiderweb design on my lightweight carbon fiber stock. The metal is also done up in Cerakote® which is as tough as a rhino’s hide. Beyond that I am a pure Mark V Outfitter with a fluted bolt body, integral recoil lug, adjustable LXX™ Trigger and a hand-lapped barrel.

Larry Moore –
Bought this just weeks ago in 6.5 Creedmoor. The LXX trigger is one of the best I have used. While 5.85#/my scale, the balance is perfect. Simply put, the finest gun I have owned. Makes me want another Weatherby. Thanks for such a great firearm.
