She sure looks nice! I wonder if she's made by those fine folks at Armalite?

I think the Mk11 is the Knights SR-25.
The Army SASS is built on the Armalite, IIRC.

DISCLAIMER:
I'm sure someone other (than me) fat, white, early 40's 200+ lb Mall Ninja (4th Degree) will be along to chime in.
If I had to run from the couch to the fridge for more Fritos dip I'd have to stop and rest half way, but I can recall useless trivia about interesting things in a single bound.

Civilian version will set you back over $7,000 but is guaranteed sub 1 MOA.

I'd prefer an AI in .338 Lapua but you do get a fast 2nd shot.
But maintance on the SR25 is similar to M4.

Will the Semi's be as accurate? Never found a auto/semi to be as accurate as bolt action.

"Both rifles fire the same 7.62 mm round, and the MK-11 is accurate up to 800 yards"

One of these days I'm going to have to learn to read.

The USMC and their newest toy. When you care enough to send the very best...500 meters downrange at a couple thousand feet per second.

This can only be considered a supplement to the M 40. It doesn't have the range of the M 40 -1000 meters. Do I detect a change in the mission of the SCOUT snipers? Or are Scout-snipers a new PC name (later they'll drop the sniper portion like they've dropped the range of the weapon).

I'm used to shooting heavier 45 cal rounds but I am curious what the specs of the round are.

Bullet weight?
Grains of powder?

is this 7.62 round a 39 or 54 grain version?

Now, if the officers will allow these snipers to do their jobs, everything will be complete. Problem is the company commanders are not using these guys the way they should ROE are in the way.
