The Proof Research Competition Barrel (brand part no. 121542) is a 26-inch stainless steel bolt-action barrel chambered in 6 Dasher, machined to fit a short-action receiver and built in Proof’s Competition contour for benchrest and long-range precision shooting. A 1-in-7.5 twist rate stabilizes the long, high-BC bullets 6 Dasher shooters rely on for extreme accuracy at distance, and the muzzle is threaded 5/8-24 for a muzzle brake or suppressor mount. At roughly 7 pounds 5 ounces, the Competition contour delivers the mass serious long-range and benchrest shooters want for a stable, front-heavy rifle that settles quickly between shots. 6 Dasher is a well-regarded wildcat cartridge among competitive precision rifle shooters for its combination of low recoil, flat trajectory, and barrel life.
