Proof Research Elevation 2.0 25Creed 22 Tfde

The Proof Research Elevation 2.0 in 25 Creedmoor with Tactical Flat Dark Earth stock is a carbon fiber hunting rifle built for backcountry hunters and long-range shooters who refuse to compromise on accuracy or pack weight. Proof's reputation for precision and their proprietary carbon fiber-wrapped barrels has earned them a dedicated following among serious hunters—and this rifle delivers on that legacy with a sub-MOA accuracy guarantee and a feature set typically found in rifles costing significantly more.

What sets the Elevation 2.0 apart is the combination of proven components: a Zermatt Arms Origin action known for its reliability and smooth operation, a TriggerTech trigger for clean, predictable breaks, and Proof's own carbon fiber stock and Sendero contour barrel. The 25 Creedmoor cartridge has become the thinking hunter's choice for medium-range to long-range work—ballistics-wise, it splits the difference between the 6.5 Creedmoor and the 6mm Creedmoor, offering excellent velocity, manageable recoil, and a wide range of available ammunition. The muzzle is threaded 5/8-24 and includes a thread protector, making it ready for a suppressor if that's part of your setup. The single-piece pinned rail provides a solid foundation for mounting optics.

At 5 lbs 14 oz to 6 lbs 8 oz depending on configuration, this rifle earns its place in a hunter's pack without feeling like dead weight during a long day in the mountains. The Hawkins Precision BDL bottom metal and hinged floorplate are user-friendly and reliable. The 13 5/8-inch length of pull suits most adult shooters without additional spacers. Every rifle ships test-fired and ready to hunt—Proof stands behind their work with that sub-MOA guarantee.

The Tactical Flat Dark Earth finish is a modern, versatile choice for hunters who want their rifle to work as hard in brushy cover as it does at the range. If you've been building custom rifles or hunting with heavier factory guns, the Elevation 2.0 offers a serious upgrade in the package form, with less fiddling and zero guesswork.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the 25 Creedmoor, and is it a good hunting cartridge?

The 25 Creedmoor is a modern intermediate-range cartridge that balances velocity, accuracy, and recoil. It offers higher velocities than the 6.5 Creedmoor in a similar platform, making it effective for medium to long-range hunting with less recoil than larger magnums. Ammunition is increasingly available from major manufacturers as the cartridge gains popularity among precision hunters.

Is the rifle ready to shoot out of the box?

The Elevation 2.0 ships test-fired and fully assembled. You'll need to mount an optic and scope ring, then zero at your preferred distance. No action-truing or barrel break-in is required—Proof's sub-MOA accuracy guarantee applies to the rifle as delivered.

Can I attach a suppressor to this rifle?

Yes. The muzzle is threaded 5/8-24 (a standard suppressor thread pitch) and includes a thread protector. Simply remove the protector and thread on your suppressor. Confirm your suppressor's thread pitch before purchase.

What optics and scope mounts will fit this rifle?

The Elevation 2.0 has a single-piece pinned Picatinny rail on top of the action. Any standard scope rings compatible with Picatinny rail systems will mount to it. Ring height will depend on your barrel profile and the objective bell diameter of your chosen optic; we recommend medium or high rings for most hunting scopes.
