Design and features
The CSR 50 is a 12.7×99mm NATO bolt-action precision rifle, intended for long-range target engagement. Its solid, monolithic receiver and free-floating, heavy-contour, match-grade precision barrel ensure unparalleled precision in a lightweight package. Can be operated by both right and left hand shooters. It combines a high capacity magazine with the proven hard-hitting .50 BMG round to provide unmatched battlefield versatility as anti-material, as well as ultra-long range and counter-sniper platform. The fully adjustable buttstock increases carrying comfort and transportability in folded condition. Ambidextrous fire controls, safety, and magazine release, drastically improve ease of operation. Cheekpiece, butt plate and trigger position/weight are configurable by the operator.[3]
