Are you a serious hunter seeking the ultimate advantage in the backcountry? Do you demand a rifle that combines featherlight portability with uncompromising precision, even in the most challenging environments?

This isn't just another hunting rifle; it's a meticulously crafted instrument designed to elevate your performance, reduce fatigue, and ensure ethical, long-range shots when it matters most.

Imagine trekking for miles through dense forests or ascending a steep mountain face. Every piece of gear adds to your burden. The traditional heavy hunting rifle, while potentially accurate, can become a significant impediment. This is precisely the problem the Proof Research Elevation Lightweight Hunter solves. It shatters the myth that a lightweight rifle must sacrifice accuracy or durability. Instead, it redefines the category, offering a compelling blend of cutting-edge technology and real-world utility for the discerning outdoorsman.

Why Choose a Lightweight Hunter Rifle?

The decision to invest in a lightweight hunting rifle like the Elevation is driven by practical realities faced by modern hunters:

• Reduced Fatigue on Long Treks: Carrying a lighter rifle over extended periods significantly reduces physical strain, allowing you to remain more alert and focused when an opportunity arises.
• Enhanced Maneuverability: A lighter firearm is easier to handle, swing, and get into position quickly, especially in dense brush or tight spots.
• Improved Packability: When navigating challenging terrain, a lighter, more compact rifle integrates seamlessly with your pack system.
• Optimal for Mountain and Backcountry Hunting: For sheep, goat, or elk hunts in high altitudes and rugged landscapes, weight savings are paramount.

The Proof Research Elevation Lightweight Hunter is specifically designed to meet these critical demands, offering an ergonomic and manageable platform that doesn't compromise on the fundamental requirement of hitting your target with extreme accuracy.

Core Features and Engineering Excellence of the Proof Research Elevation

At the heart of the Elevation Lightweight Hunter's exceptional performance lies Proof Research's unwavering commitment to advanced materials and precision manufacturing. This rifle is not merely assembled; it is engineered from the ground up to deliver a superior shooting experience.

• Advanced Carbon Fiber Barrel Technology: The standout feature is undoubtedly the 24-inch carbon fiber-wrapped barrel. Proof Research pioneered this technology, and for good reason. Unlike traditional steel barrels, which can be heavy and susceptible to heat-induced warping, their carbon fiber barrels offer:
  • Dramatic Weight Reduction: Significant weight savings compared to steel barrels of similar profiles, contributing directly to the rifle's overall lightweight nature.
  • Exceptional Stiffness: The carbon fiber wrap provides superior stiffness, which translates directly into enhanced accuracy and reduced barrel harmonics.
  • Faster Heat Dissipation: Carbon fiber acts as an excellent thermal conductor, dispersing heat more efficiently than steel. This means less point-of-impact shift during rapid fire or extended shooting sessions, maintaining accuracy shot after shot.
  • Increased Durability: The aerospace-grade carbon fiber is incredibly robust and resistant to environmental factors like rust and corrosion, making it ideal for harsh outdoor conditions.
• Precise 7mm Remington Magnum Chambering: The 7mm Rem Mag is a highly versatile and powerful cartridge, known for its flat trajectory and excellent energy retention at long ranges. It's an ideal choice for a wide variety of North American and international big game, from deer and elk to moose and bears. This caliber, when paired with the Elevation's precision engineering, ensures you have the stopping power and accuracy needed for ethical kills even at extended distances.
• Lightweight Synthetic Stock: The rifle is equipped with a high-quality black synthetic stock. This material choice further contributes to the rifle's overall light weight while offering superior durability and weather resistance compared to traditional wood stocks. It won't swell, warp, or crack due to moisture or temperature fluctuations, ensuring consistent performance in any climate. The right-hand configuration provides ergonomic comfort for the vast majority of shooters.
• Generous 4+1 Capacity: With a standard capacity of 4 rounds in the magazine plus one in the chamber, this rifle provides ample firepower for most hunting scenarios, allowing for quick follow-up shots if necessary.
• Threaded Muzzle (5/8"-24 tpi): The 24-inch carbon fiber barrel features a 5/8"-24 thread pitch. This crucial detail allows for the easy attachment of a variety of muzzle devices, including:
  • Suppressors: For noise reduction, which protects hearing and reduces animal disturbance.
  • Muzzle Brakes: To significantly mitigate recoil, allowing for faster target reacquisition and more comfortable shooting, especially with powerful cartridges like the 7mm Rem Mag.
  This versatility enhances the rifle's adaptability for different hunting styles and preferences.

• The Mountain Hunter: For pursuits of sheep, goats, or high-country elk, where every ounce affects your ability to ascend and traverse difficult terrain.
• The Discerning Hunter Who Demands Precision: Even with its lightweight design, the Elevation maintains Proof Research's sub-MOA accuracy guarantee, making it suitable for hunters who demand the utmost precision for ethical long-range shots.
