The Proof Research Glacier TI delivers match-grade accuracy in a lightweight titanium and carbon fiber platform engineered for precision shooting applications. This bolt-action rifle combines aerospace-grade materials with proven manufacturing techniques to achieve sub-MOA performance while reducing overall weight by approximately 2 pounds compared to traditional steel receivers.
What Makes This Different
The titanium receiver construction provides exceptional strength-to-weight ratio while the carbon fiber wrapped barrel maintains thermal stability during extended shooting sessions. Unlike conventional steel barrels that can shift point of impact as they heat up, the carbon fiber construction dissipates heat more efficiently and returns to zero faster. The threaded muzzle accepts standard 5/8x24 suppressors and muzzle devices without additional gunsmithing.
Key Features
- 20-inch carbon fiber wrapped match-grade barrel with 5/8x24 threading
- Titanium receiver with black Cerakote finish for corrosion resistance
- Integrated Picatinny rail for direct optic mounting
- PROOF Hunter carbon fiber stock in Tactical Flat Dark Earth finish
- 4+1 capacity with detachable magazine system
- Sub-MOA accuracy guarantee with quality ammunition
- Overall weight reduction of 1.5-2 pounds versus steel construction
Field testing demonstrates consistent 0.5-0.75 MOA groups with match ammunition, making this rifle suitable for precision hunting at extended ranges and competitive shooting disciplines. The lightweight construction reduces fatigue during long hunting expeditions while maintaining the rigidity needed for consistent accuracy. The titanium receiver handles magnum cartridge pressures while the carbon fiber barrel profile provides optimal balance between stiffness and weight savings.
