Not a Wby fan, per se. I have one Mk V with a 7RM #2 Brux in a McWoody Express and Timney trigger. Great gun.

One thing about the Mk V. To me it's one of the fastest cycling bolt guns ever. With the slick action and 60* bolt throw, it really can run fast in the right hands.

The nine lug Mk V is a big heavy action, not one I'd use for a LW gun. Maybe the six lug version with pencil barrel and light weight stock...
