Proof Research Tundra .300 PRC 22 Inch Bolt Action Rifle

Description

The Tundra is Proof Research’s answer to a specific problem: building a precision hunting rifle that can be carried hard in the field without sacrificing the accuracy standards of a benchrest setup. It is aimed at hunters and long-range shooters who need a rifle that earns its weight across rough terrain rather than sitting in a safe.

The Defiance Ruckus action underpins the whole platform. It is a purpose-built bolt action designed to provide the kind of bolt-to-receiver fit that keeps groups consistent regardless of environmental conditions — the sort of concern that matters when you’re shooting cold and wet rather than from a controlled bench.

The carbon fiber-wrapped, match-grade barrel addresses two things at once. The CF wrap keeps mass down where it would otherwise accumulate in a heavy-contour precision barrel, and it dissipates heat faster than a steel equivalent of the same profile, which matters across a extended string of fire or a warm day. At .300 PRC, the cartridge pushes long, high-BC projectiles at velocities that demand a stable rifling engagement — the 1-in-9 twist rate is fast enough to stabilize the heavy-for-caliber bullets that make .300 PRC worth shooting at distance, while staying manageable with lighter loads when that is the practical choice.

The Black Jungle Tundra stock is Proof Research’s own carbon fiber chassis, built to resist the dimensional shift that wood and synthetic stocks exhibit under humidity changes — relevant because stock flex against the action bed is a common source of point-of-impact shift between seasons. The muzzle is threaded 5/8×24 for suppressor or brake use. Proof Research backs this configuration with a sub-half-MOA accuracy guarantee.
