Your Choice Of Long-Range Hunting Rifle May Impact Your Success

Hunters and shooters go to trouble to find that special rifle they feel comfortable with at the range or out in the field, whether this is on the plains somewhere, in the bush, the mountains or the savannah. You want to know that you are comfortable with the stock, the barrel, the trigger and all those parts that make up your rifle. This is certainly true, too, for the long-range shooter, even more so than for shooters that hunt over shorter, or nearby, distances, since the long-range shooter often gets one chance at their target only.

You have to make sure you are confident that your rifle is the one that was designed with first shot accuracy and precision in mind. A good example of such a rifle is the PROOF Research rifle that is, for example, the preferred one for use by the military –and thousands of long-range shooters and hunters. The reason is that this rifle meets important requirements and has the qualities the hunter and shooter are looking for.

Before you can truly measure your readiness and success out there, it is important to make sure you choose the rifle that will enhance your natural ability and the skills required, by repeatedly shooting it at the range so you become familiar with it and how it handles, so that you know you can place your groups tight together and understand your rifle does not intimidate you but is the one you will trust for precision and repeatability.

In this regard you have to consider the importance of, for example, the load which is the most appropriate combination of all of those elements that provide the energy and power you need for accurate shooting, to make sure your shot kills your prey and does not merely wound it. This is one of the issues that hunters and shooters feel they get when they arrive with one of the PROOF Research rifles on the market, such as the MTR, the Elevation, Glacier or Tundra for that matter.

Many good rifles can be trusted for their design and manufacturing features to guarantee success at shorter distances such as 200 yards, or 400 yards, even 500, but

not all long-range rifles will hit target at 700 yards, or 900 or further. This is why more and more long-range shooters trust the abilities of the PROOF Research.

Of course the shooter has to feel confident that they acquire a rifle with the best action, such as, for example, a centerfire bolt action. Making sure you have a rifle with a good action is important. Look at the barrel too. Carbon fiber barrels are noted for being durable, withstanding and handling the elements, and for being lightweight, a must for the shooter that treks for hours through the bush or in mountainous regions. The stock is equally important. Most experienced long-range shooters may agree that a composite stock should be considered as it helps provide the accuracy the shooter is looking for as well as being a great form of defense against the elements such as rain that can cause stocks swell, for example. You will look at good optics too.

All of the above are important markers, and the PROOF Research, when put together by a professional, meets all important requirements that ensure your rifle has the features to support the long-range shooter’s quest for accuracy and precision. In order for your PROOF Research (or another good rifle) to offer you the stability, accuracy and precision you are after, remember: spend time at the range and get used to the rifle. The PROOF Research is a good enough rifle to instill confidence in the shooter, but it is also important to know that the individual has to practice their own skills. Only then do you have the assurance that a good hunting rifle will support your efforts – a rifle such as the PROOF Research.
