The Proof Research Elevation MTR is a .338 ARC bolt-action rifle (Proof Research part no. 151723) built around a compact 16-inch carbon-fiber-wrapped barrel, matched to a cartridge purpose-designed for short-barrel, suppressed precision shooting. The MTR (Mountain Tactical Rifle) line blends Proof Research’s lightweight carbon-fiber construction with a stock built for both field carry and tactical stability. Finished in Midnight for a low-glare, all-purpose field finish, it is threaded and ready to run suppressed at the 16-inch barrel length without giving up meaningful velocity in .338 ARC. This is a specialized, modern precision rifle for hunters and shooters who want to run suppressed.
