The Denel NTW-20 uses a 20x89mm cartridges, while the Denel NTW-20x110 and Croatian RT-20 both use a 20x110mm autocannon cartridge. A prototype 25mm sniping weapon has been developed in the US, but is not currently in service.
Mr.Springfield did, an American General.Well it depends on what kind of Springfield as the 30-06 Springfield which was used in World War 2 as a sniper in the U.S Army. Springfield Armory invented that kind of Sniper Rifle during World War 2. Another Springfield would be the Springfield m1903 which is used in the ROTC programs acroos America today.Springfield is the name of the Arsenal in SPRINGFIELD MASS. There were many variations designed and made by the arsenal during WW1 and WW2. The last model was the 1903A4, it was manufactured by Remington.
That will depend on the rifle in question,what caliber,and the overall condition of the rifle including the amount of original finish remaining on the wood and metal.
The rifle was not as deadly as the machine gun or artillery, but it WAS deadly. By WW 1, rifles included the German 8mm Mauser, the British .303 caliber SMLE, and the American 30-06 caliber 1903 Springfield. All were high powered repeating rifles, accurate to several hundred meters.
The Arisaka Type 38 Rifle and the Arisaka Type 44 Rifle both used a 6.5 mm bullet whereas the Arisaka Type 99 Rifle used a 7.7 cartridge . The Nambu Type 14 Handgun used an 8 mm cartridge .
that's kind of an opinion
It is often accepted the Heckler and Koch PSG-1 is the most accurate sniper rifle in the world.
plain and simple.yes. but not the most accurate.
50.Cal.
Actually there was no best sniper rifle during world war 2 because it was never tested. Different countries used different weapons.
springfield 1903 rifle........30/06 caliber
The Mauser es340b was a single shot .22 long rifle. It was made too look and feel like a Mauser 98K. It is not a sniper rifle. It is a target rifle.
The sniper rifle dates back to the American Civil War when Confederate troops mounted scopes on rifles and could kill the enemy from distances of up to 800 yards. From World War I and beyond, what we know as the sniper rifle today became common.
Wood and steel.
CheyTac, holds world record for target shooting.
The PTRS is mainly used as an anti- tank sniper and the 50 cal is just a normal sniper rifle. =============== The PTRS was a sniper rifle made by the Russians during world war 2, it was used to take down heavy infantry and light vehicles like half tracks and jeeps. The Barret 50 Calibre sniper rifle is an anti-infantry sniper rifle, used for all purpose battlefield deployment. However, the modern day anti-armour sniper is the Intervention, this bolt-action sniper rifle is used in Call Of Duty Modern Warfare 2 (wow... took me ages to write that title) which for some reason does no more damage than the Barret. The intervention can slice through light-to-medium armour in seconds, killing anybody inside.
The m1 garand for its power and it can have a sniper scope
Yes it is and it is also the most accurate sniper rifle in the world, with a bullet spread of .3 centimeters up to a mile+ away. it shoots a .408 round which can penetrate armored helicopters and lightly armored vehicles.
