H&K PSG-1, It is landmark design and carries the ability to hold groups that only a single shot rifle has held in the past.

A little info on Military Sniper Rifles.....
It was fore mentioned that the .308 was to light for Military use....and this, in a nutshell, is very wrong.
The .308 has been used for years as a military sniper rifle.
Examples:
M40A1: .308 sniper rifle capable of 1000 yards shots. It was actually based on a Remington 700.
M24 SWS: .308, capable of 800 meter shots.

The 50 cal sniper rifle used by the military is the M82A1A. It is a semi-automatic, air cooled, box magazine fed rifle chambered for the .50 caliber, M2 Browning Machine Gun cartridge (.50 BMG or 12.7 x 99mm NATO). This rifle operates by means of the short recoil principle. The weapon system is comprised of the rifle (M82A1A) with a Unertl 10-power scope and an additional box magazine. The system comes packed in its own watertight, airtight carrying case with an air release valve for aircraft transportation and the requisite cleaning rod and brushes. The basic M82A1A rifle is equipped with bipod, muzzle brake, carrying handle, metallic sights, and 10-round box magazine. There is also a back pack for cross country transport and a bandolier for extra magazines is available.

Many think the purpose of a larger round is purely for added range, but these people are badly mistaken. The .50BMG is not intended as a anti-personnel weapon....that basically means it's not for shooting people. The .50BMG is an anti-material weapon. The purpose of this weapon is to disable light armored to armored vechiles, destroy weapons systems, and to disable any other material possesion that the enemy might have. The effective range nears 1.12 miles, thats nearly 1969 yards. Tipped with a depleted uranium tip, this round can eaisly leave a hole clean through a tank. Will it kill a man?? Uh, yea....but a long range missle will too.

Bound's hubby here:

First, a sniper rifle is really an accurate target rifle put into service for hunting. Which "hunting rifle" do I think is most accurate?

My vote goes to the Marine's M40 series (Remington 700 Varmints). I have a Remington 700 Varmint Special in .308 that I have built up as a 1000 yard rifle. This rifle, at the moment, is capable of 20 shot 14 inch groups at 1000 yards. There is more I can do to tune it. My M1A/M21 shoots great but not that great. The European rifles are just too exotic. If I were to rank the most accurate "hunting rifles" it would be in this order:
1. Remington 700 series (M40s)
2. Winchester Model 70T
3. M1A/M21.

Good luck.

ohk9cop is correct you are asking
"what is the best car?"

Best for what?

Is a Porsche 911 best for getting seven kids to soccer practice?

Is a Mini-van best for demonstrating testosterone levels?

There is simply no simple answer!

The majority of current "Sniper rifles" are bolt action .308win.(7.62x51mmNato) Caliber rifles with a heavy barrel, target type stock, relativley light trigger and a telescopic sight.

Most police and U.S military units use such a rifle.
Example: Remington 700pss, Robar sr-60/90, U.S. M24sws, U.S.M.C M40, A.I. AWP/AE, Steyr SSG.

They are effective for precision marksmanship out to about 600m, yes I know some very talented shots that can extend this range to maybe 1200m but this is an exceptional marksman under perfect conditions.
Most police "sniper" shots are taken at under 150m

For military use the variety is even more dependant on the objective.

Any of the above weapons and many more are currently used for general "sniping"

For heavy, long range anti-material use the .50(12.7x99mm) caliber weapons are in-valuable.
Barrett 92series/M-107, A.I. .50, etc
Some amazing anti-personnel shots have come of this but it is not their primary use.

For light fast moving special operations teams a semi-auto precision rifle is an advantage.
It allows for more rounds on target and a more versatile weapon, It can do double duty as an infantry rifle and a precise sniper weapon.
New technologies, ammunition, and manufacturing techniques have made semi-automatic rifles as accurate as the old bolt-action guns. These weapons usual feature Medium or Variable magnification scopes w/back-up iron sights.

Stoner/Knight's Sr-25(mk11, M110), Armalite AR-10t, H&K Psg-1/Msg-90, PRI mk12/S.P.R, Springfield M-25

Then there's the D.M.R or Designated Marksman's Rifle.
These are not true sniper rifles but accurate scoped rifles designed to provide a squad or fire team accurate sustained fire beyond the capabilities of the standard service rifle.

M-21, scoped M14, Scoped M16a4,

Then there is the urban hit-man sniper rifle. A suppressed .22 rimfire. Also great for animal control. In both instances it can be fired and resolve the situation with out attracting attention.

This has been asked and answered before.

First the M82A1 is referred to as a Special Application Scoped Rifle by the Marine Scout Snipers. I don't think they shoot depleated uranium, the SLAP rounds were APDS with a tungsten core and the Raufoss rounds are APHEI with a tungsten core for the AP part, RDX for the HE and zirconium for the incendiary part.

Police snipers use 223, military snipers don't. 223 isn't any use for killing people at long range, it was designed as a wounding round for moderate range.

I'll go for the Accuracy International AW SM in 338 Lapua as used by the British and German military.

In most real world situations the .308 is sufficient. For bolt actions an M24A2 or M40A3 depending on you preferance. PSG-1 or a M25 if you need the speed of an auto. For extended ranges I would suggest a custom rifle based on the Remingtonn 700 or Mauser action with a McMillian stock chambered for .300 Winchester Magnum or .338 Lapua.

That is a question like asking someone "what is the best car?" you will get different answers from everyone and everyone will think that their answer is the right one. I use a Remington 700P in .308 cal which is perfect for my application. Military will use the Barrett .50 cal. because it more suits their needs. In the city the .308 will give me plenty of penetration where as the military a .308 is too light of bullet and does not have the range of the .50 cal.

Remington 700 varmit barrel in .308 (7.62X51) with at least a
6-24X40 leupold scope.

Remington is the only non binding bolt on the market. We tested many brands when looking to see which brand to make our match rifles on. Remington won hands down. Out of the box with factory barrel (broke in right) they shoot 1/4 to 1/2 m.o.a.

ill take my ol 306 with a decent scope and pick off a rabbit at 400 meters. without a scope i will drop down pop up targets at 250 meters. Just call me a killer boy!
I wait for the day someone comes knocking on my door wanting to try something. I never go anywhere without packing my holstered beretta and a backup 380.
And I have a kill shot at 550 meters on a 10 point buck, and a quick draw on a coyote

If the army would let me Id go kill them rag heads

I suppose it depends on who you ask. Normally I would list a ton of different guns, pros and cons and tons of statistics so everyone knew how smart I was, but this time - I'm just gonna say the Barrett M82A1. I'm saving up now...
