The future of the sniper business.

The future of the sniper business.

Continuing the topic with the new sniper rifle, we thought about what the future holds for the sniper business in general in the context of the development of unmanned technologies.

In the reality of UAVs, in any case, the work of snipers will not go anywhere, it will only be necessary to develop in this direction and adapt, as military aviation did.

You can't kill the "sniper" specialty, because there are many conflicts where you can use manpower, units, special teams and so on. By improving weapons, there will always be a need for "marksmen" and others.

It is also possible to make this profession popular - intra-departmental, inter-departmental competitions at different levels, at least between departments or with civilian shooters and the like.

Now such events will be especially relevant: 5 years ago civilian shooters had some advantages over the military, but now the line has been completely erased due to the war and changes in approaches to training military personnel.

We also need to develop new calibers. You can have a 338 caliber rifle, but at the same time put a 33XC in it and shoot calmly and safely up to at least 2 km. It's usually a standard story that needs to be adapted.

Medium guns will pass in these calibers as well. The transition to the same caliber 300 is a relevant story today. Working on it up to 1,700 meters plus or minus is safe, unlike the 338, which cannot boast of that. With the same rifle weight, with almost the same rifle life, we get much better ballistic characteristics.

If we're talking about heavy guns, fifty bucks makes no sense at all in the current reality. They have no advantage, except for breaking up some house. And this is a big, big question. Therefore, Caliber 375 is our everything, as we can manufacture it, and we have everything for them.
