The Proof Research 6.5 PRC Carbon Fiber Barrel for the Tikka T3x at 24 inches, Sendero contour (brand part no. 119709), gives T3x owners a precision, magnum-capable barrel swap in one of the most capable long-range cartridges available. Proof cuts this barrel specifically to fit the Tikka T3x action and wraps it in carbon fiber to shed weight compared to a comparable steel barrel, keeping the finished rifle at roughly 2 pounds 13 ounces. A 1:7.5 twist rate stabilizes the long, heavy 6.5mm bullets that make 6.5 PRC hold velocity and energy well past 1,000 yards, and the muzzle is threaded 5/8-24 for a brake or suppressor. The Sendero contour balances rigidity with a manageable weight for field or PRS-style use.
