Read More »A US Marine fires an M40A5 sniper rifle at Puckpunyal Military Area in Australia, May 7, 2016. US Marine Corps/Sgt. Terence Brady The M40 has been the mainstay of Marine Corps sniper teams since it made its combat debut in the mid-1960s during the Vietnam war. The M40 sniper rifle system is actually based on the Remington 700, a popular sport and hunting rifle available in a variety of rifle cartridges. In Marine Corps hands, however, the M40 is chambered in the ubiquitous 7.62×51 mm NATO cartridge and is accurate out to around 800 meters, though a number of confirmed kills with the M40 have been achieved at much longer distances. The design proved popular with the Army too, adopted in the mid-1980s as the M24 Sniper Weapon System. The difference between the two rifles is the Army's M24 uses a longer action that can accommodate longer, more powerful cartridges, and with the appropriate barrel change, can fire them as well. Both designs have been steadily upgraded since introduction, with improvements in stocks, barrels, and portability incrementally incorporated into the platforms. Another Barrett rifle makes the list — their new MRAD sniper rifle. The MRAD is just about the perfect sniper rifle — and quite the unique precision shooting platform. Depending on the variant, the MRAD can fire eight different calibers. The military MRAD variant, the Mk22, will likely be capable of firing the .338 Norma Mag, .300 Norma Mag, and 7.62 x 51mm NATO. Thanks to an aluminum upper receiver, the MRAD is quite light-weight too, 13.9 to 15.2 pounds depending on the barrel configuration. Caleb Larson is a Defense Writer based in Europe.
