The Weatherby Mk. V is the second most powerful commercially available sniper rifle. It is the most common rifle used by Core World hunters, and some assassins. Similar to the Barret, it is a single shot, bolt action, but has the advantage that it can be broken down into five parts and stored in a small suitcase. It is most common among snipers of the Rebel Alliance.
Requires STRENGTH of 3D to use properly without injury. For each pip less, user takes +2 damage (i.e. 1D+1 STR less than needed, 2D+2 damage is being taken).
Scope adds +1D+2 to shots taken at medium range or greater, 1D+1 at short range.
Recoil Suppressor adds +2 to STR rating, for usage purpose only.
Damage increases to 6D+1 when shot at anyone within the minimum range, but to hit goes up by one category.
