In the upcoming May 2014 issue of RIFLE FIREPOWER, author Len Waldron writes, “Precision shooting in the field is about learning, then mastering the basics with modest practice. A once-in-a-lifetime shot should be a glorious moment of fulfillment, not a tragic disappointment. Training is the answer, and Magpul Dynamics has a customized Precision Hunter course designed to help hunters get the most out of their equipment and enhance their skills.”

Waldron attends and brings along a special Proof Research Tactical II rifle in 6.5 Creedmoor. He writes, “I decided to put some modern technology to the test along with my shooting skills at the Precision Hunter course. Proof Research is a high-tech rifle manufacturing that’s the product of combining Lone Wolf Rifle Stocks, Jense Precision and a patent for carbon-fiber barrel technology. The company also recently acquired Performance Polymer Solutions, a company that makes components for the F-35 Strike Fighter. The Montana-based rifle company engineers lightweight precision ARs and bolt actions built around its proprietary carbon-fiber-wrapped precision barrels. Proof ’s carbon-fiber wrap is a patented innovation that reduces weight and increases durability and consistency.”
