sniper rifle
A high-precision rifle designed to accurately engage targets at long range, equipped with a telescopic sight most of the time. Most modern sniper rifles feature a buttstock with adjustable length and cheekpiece position, as well as a (detachable) bipod for stability. Some of them fire specialized rounds such as the .338 Lapua Magnum, while many models share the same ammunition with the more common service rifles, such as 7.62×51mm NATO.
This tag also apply to World War II-era or earlier conventional full-length rifles with a long range scope, such as the Mosin-Nagant.
