I just bought a Weatherby Mark V stainless synthetic in 308. The stock is nothing special, just black plastic with what looks like a Weatherby branded Decelerator. The metal is a matte stainless. Caliber is 308. According to the serial number on Weatherbys website it was made 1996-1998. The serial is AS0020XX. What sub model of the Mark V is this? I've called the factory multiple times but the recording just says to call back later.

Sounds like the basic "Synthetic Stainless", made from 1997-2004.

Nice gun Pictures would help. I doubt it has a decelerator on it and if it does it might have a B&C or HS precision stock.

It could be an Alaskan they produced those somewhere around that time.
