New for 2018 the Nosler Model 48 Long Range Carbon™ includes all of the same features that made the Model 48 Long Range a success with the addition of a PROOF Research™ carbon fiber-wrapped match-grade barrel. By combining precision machining with space-age materials technology the PROOF barrel reduces the overall weight of the rifle while providing the utmost accuracy and durability. PROOF’s carbon fiber-wrapped barrels are not only lighter they are stiffer and dissipate heat better than traditional stainless barrels for enhanced accuracy shot after shot. Precisely mated to a trued and faced Model 48 receiver and bedded in a Manners MCS-carbon fiber stock the PROOF barrel brings space-age technology to your next hunting rifle. – The Model 48 LR-Carbon is an excellent choice for mountain hunting backcountry excursions and long range competition. Born in the wide-open expanses of the west the Model 48 Long Range Carbon™ is perfect for any situation where ranges may be long and weight is a concern. – Model 48 Long-range Carbon Rifle Includes: – Nosler Model 48 Custom Action – Action and Bottom Metal Cerakoted Sniper Grey – Timney™ Trigger with 2 Position Safety – Manners MCS-T Elite Tac 100% Carbon Fiber Stock in Elite Midnight Camo – 26” PROOF Light Sendero Contour Carbon Fiber-Wrapped Barrel – 5/8×24 Threaded Muzzle – Glass and Aluminum Pillar Bedding – Hinged Floorplate – Guaranteed M.O.A.
