Deadly Sniper

Yet another military weapon is being upgraded, this time its a M24 Sniper Rifle.What upgrades? Well nothing short of shooting Further, quieter and more accurately.The M24's barrel is being modified to shoot heavier .300 Winchester Magnum rounds, instead of the 7.62mm NATO ammunition, which should extend the rifle's maximum effective range by hundreds of yards to a maximum of about 1400 yards. The suppressor will reduce the 


noise and flash of the gun so snipers can stay in their hiding positions much longer after they fire and snipe more baddies.The gun will also get  a new chassis that provides  the ability to attach accessories, especially much-needed night-
vision devices that clip on directly to the rail in front of the scope. The scope itself will be improved, adding a variable power system that can reach 16.5x to 25x magnification.The Gun will also get a rangefinder so troops will no longer have to perform calculations on distance.Awesome, i wouldnt want to be on the wrong side of this war.
