PROOF RESEARCH ELEVATION 2.0 6.5PRC MDNHT 22″

Description

The Elevation 2.0 is Proof Research’s answer to a specific problem: building a hunting and precision field rifle that doesn’t force the shooter to choose between a carbon-fiber barrel’s weight savings and the accuracy standard serious work demands. It fits the shooter who covers rough country on foot and still expects the rifle to perform at distance when the moment comes.

The action is a Zermatt Arms Origin, a platform chosen for its tight receiver-to-barrel interface and compatibility with standard AICS-pattern magazines, which means feeding reliability and easy magazine sourcing in the field. The carbon-fiber-wrapped match-grade barrel handles heat faster than a comparable steel profile at the same weight, letting the barrel return to a stable temperature between shots more predictably — a practical advantage when a second shot on game matters.

The 1-in-7.5-inch twist rate is optimized for the heavier, high-BC projectiles that make 6.5 PRC useful at extended range. Shooters running lighter bullets in that bore diameter should verify stability at that rate of twist before settling on a load. The muzzle is cut 5/8×24, the standard thread pitch for most centerfire rifle suppressors and muzzle brakes in this bore size, so adding a device later requires no adapter.

The Midnight Camo stock is a composite chassis designed to hold zero under temperature and humidity swings that would cause a wood stock to shift point of impact. There are no sights included; the action is drilled and tapped for scope mounting, and Proof Research backs the rifle with a sub-MOA guarantee, making optic selection the logical next decision for the buyer.
