The Proof Research Elevation MTR FDX 6.5 PRC is a Mountain Technical Rifle, a lightweight bolt-action designed to bridge the gap between a precision rifle and a mountain hunting rig (Proof Research part no. 154007). It is built around a Falkor LW7 action, a 20-inch Sendero contour carbon fiber barrel with PROOF PXT rifling and a carbon fiber MTR stock in Splinter camouflage. A TriggerTech trigger, Hawkins Precision M5 Hunter bottom metal and a 3-round detachable Hunter magazine complete the build. It suits hunters who want precision shooting and a light carry weight in one rifle.
