Proof Research Carbon Fiber Bolt Action Barrel - 101025:
Because Proof rifle barrels are engineered for thermal performance, they also move heat very effectively through the wall of the barrel, greatly increasing heat transport and resulting in barrels that cool faster and maintain accuracy over repeated fire.
The end result is an aerospace-grade, high-fiber content composite barrel that is stronger, lighter, as accurate as the finest precision steel barrel, and maintains its accuracy in the most demanding environments.
- Exceptional Weight Reduction: Wrapping high-tensile carbon fiber around a stainless steel core creates durable hunting rifle barrels that shed up to 64% of traditional steel weight while maintaining rigidity.
- Superior Thermal Dissipation: Advanced carbon composite construction pulls heat away from the bore ten times faster than steel, preserving barrel life and eliminating point-of-impact shift.
- Uncompromising Match-Grade Precision: Relying on high-performance Proof Research barrels ensures superior vibration damping, improved balance, and consistent sub-MOA accuracy across harsh wilderness environments.
Precision Optics operates as your premier online firearms dealer, supplying elite hunting rifle accessories engineered to maximize field performance during demanding backcountry hunts. Upgrading your custom build with the Proof Research Carbon Fiber Bolt Action Barrel - 101025 guarantees effortless carrying through steep terrain, rapid cooling during rapid strings of fire, and relentless shot-to-shot accuracy when taking long-range shots in extreme mountain conditions.
The aerospace-grade carbon fiber Proof uses has a specific strength up to 30 times that of stainless steel and a specific stiffness up to 7 times greater than steel. But strength and stiffness are only part of the equation. Heat conductivity and thermal expansion are also of paramount importance when developing a match-grade carbon fiber barrel. The Proof helical wrapping pattern favors the longitudinal thermal diffusivity of the carbon fibers (along the length of the barrel) allowing them to more efficiently dissipate heat emanating from the barrel rather than insulating it.
