Earlier this year, SAAMI accepted the 16th Weatherby cartridge, the .338 Weatherby Rebated Precision Magnum (.338 WBY RPM). Weatherby has now officially introduced the .338 WBY RPM cartridge and announced the availability of ammunition and rifles chambered in this new caliber.

Weatherby Inc. has announced the release of a new cartridge called 6.5 Weatherby RPM (Rebated Precision Magnum) and two new Mark V rifles – Backcountry and Backcountry Ti. The cartridge and rifles were developed together with a goal of having a sub-5-pound magnum rifle/ammunition rig. Let’s take a closer look at each of the new Weatherby products.
