The Proof Research Carbon Fiber Bolt-Action Barrel (part no. 115619) is chambered in 6.5 PRC and cut to 24 inches for a short-action receiver such as a Zermatt action. Proof Research wraps this barrel in carbon fiber to cut weight versus an equivalent steel barrel, and rifles it at a 1:7.5 twist to stabilize heavier 6.5mm bullets.

Key Specifications

• Chambered in 6.5 PRC, a long-range cartridge built for heavier, high-BC bullets.
• Sized for a short action, such as a Zermatt receiver.
• Cut to 24 inches, enough length to reach 6.5 PRC’s full velocity potential.
• Rifled at a 1:7.5 twist rate, fast enough to stabilize heavier 6.5mm match bullets.
• Threaded 5/8-24 at the muzzle for a brake or suppressor.
• Cut in a Sendero contour, a heavier profile that resists heat-induced point-of-impact shift.
• Built with Proof Research’s carbon-fiber-wrapped construction, weighing about 2 lb 15 oz.
