Army squads’ designated marksmen have been using the M110A1 7.62mm semi-automatic sniper rifle — but threats have evolved and U.S. soldiers deserve the best rifle for the job.
In 2016, the Army selected Heckler & Koch’s 7.62mm rifle based on their G28, with specific modifications tailored to meet the military’s requirements.
Accuracy
The G28 is designed to provide accuracy of 1.5 MOA.
What’s the maximum effective range? The company indicates high first round hit probability up to about 2,600 feet.

Nice looking weapon but we will have to see what the troops think?
