5 of the Best Sniper Rifles on Sale
We have all thought about it, theoretically of course. What would be the best rifle to use if we decided to be professional killers, assassins, guns for hire?
There’s a lot of choice out there and so we started to really think about it. Because we’re weird, too.
Here is a quick guide to the best sniper rifles for sale in 2023.
As always this is the short version. For the best sniper rifles and a much bigger piece, go here:
1. Tikka T3x Tac A1
Price: $2,281.99
The Tikka T3x Tac A1 is here because the crowd has spoken. The ardent long-distance shooters here insist that this Finnish work of engineering excellence is the best rifle here until you start spending serious money.
It’ 's a bolt action sniper rifle that is a pain to carry, but an absolute long distance tack driver in 308 Win Mag or 6.5 Creedmoor when you get there.
2. Sig Sauer Cross
Price: $1,632.99
Sig Sauer decided to create a crossover that brought all of the joys of precision rifles to the hunting and casual plinking crowd.
A hunting rifle with added precision, portability and a short enough barrel to sling on your shoulder? That’s a mighty compelling recipe for the modern sniper. The Sig Sauer might not be the main weapon, but definitely it could work if you have to cover ground as well.
This is more of a precision rifle for hunters than a real long distance sniper because it is so light. But that has practical applications in the shadowy underworld….
3. Christensen Arms Modern Precision
Price: $2,524.99
The Christensen Arms Modern Precision is one of our favorites, and it’s light enough to carry out in the field. It’s a truly portable long range sniper rifle, and comes loaded with expensive carbon-fiber parts.
They include a thin stainless steel barrel in a carbin fiber sleeve. This is slavish devotion to weight saving and a real insight into the Christensen Arms MPR.
You get a match grade flat trigger, folding stock, a free floating carbon-fiber handguard and other assorted goodies on this MPR.
4. Barrett MRAD
Price: $6,448.99
This is military hardware, the new US army and special forces sniper rifle. So what makes it special?
You can change the caliber in a minute and go from the relatively up close and personal 308 Winchester Magnum to the long range 338 Lapua Magnum rounds for picking foreign threats out from a mile away.
5. Cheytac M200 Intervention
Price: $11,388.99
if this was a list of the best military sniper rifle choices then the Cheytac M200 Intervention would probably win. But it isn’t, and our requirements are slightly different.
Now the Cheytac is amazing. The company claims to hit targets at 3,800 yards and the bullets remain supersonic well beyond 1000 yards. Also, how’s about 3,511 foot lb of power at 1000 yards compared to 50 BMG’s 3,186. That’s wild shiz..
The Cheytac holds multiple records for the longest killshot in actual warzones and that’s something to be proud of. We guess…
