The PROOF BBL Stainless Steel Bolt-Action Barrel in 6 GT is a precision replacement barrel engineered for Zermatt Arms TL3 actions. Built for long-range shooters and competition hunters who demand accuracy and reliability, this 26-inch barrel combines a proven stainless steel construction with a competition contour designed to manage heat and maintain point-of-impact over extended strings of fire. The 6 GT is a modern, efficient cartridge that delivers solid ballistics in a compact package—an increasingly popular choice for precision rifle builds where speed and accuracy matter.

At 7 pounds 5 ounces, this barrel strikes a practical balance between rigidity and a shootable weight for field and bench applications.
