Overview

PROOF's steel bolt-action blanks give builders a known competition contour and a published spec table before the smith spins the barrel. For a PRS rifle, the Competition contour is the sensible starting point before moving to Heavy Competition for maximum mass.

Key Features

  • Published part-number, twist, shank, contour, weight, and MSRP data
  • Competition contour options in common PRS bore sizes
  • 28 inch blanks for final-length flexibility
  • Steel construction for conventional smithing and match durability

Pros

  • +Strong balance of availability and premium-barrel reputation
  • +Competition contour gives useful PRS mass
  • +Published specs make ordering easier than vague blank listings

Cons

  • Requires gunsmith chambering and threading
  • Heavy Competition variants add significant rifle weight
  • Not as bespoke as a fully specified custom Bartlein or Krieger order
