The APR Rifle is a professional sniper system intended to be used by military and law
enforcement professionals. It was specially designed as a sniper system not just a rifle and
is ready to shoot right out of the box. B&T has understood that snipers may face a broad
variety of both tactical and logistical obstacles situations to perform their duties. From a
tactical view, these may vary from urban police sniping at relatively close ranges such as
from across a parking lot to military sniping on distances far beyond one kilometer. That is
why the APR is available in different calibers and also in different barrel length. Furthermo-
re B&T offers different accessories in order to customize the APR even further.
It is common knowledge that a bolt action rifle is superior to any semi-automatic rifle in
accuracy. Another reason why the bolt action rifle is the weapon of choice for any situa-
tion requiring a high degree of precision is that many modern .308 special application sni-
per rounds do not function reliably in a semi-automatic weapon. For long distance military
applications, the smooth bolt action is fast enough for a follow up shot if required.
The APR is available in the two most widely used and best rated sniper calibers, the
.308 Win (7.62 x 51 mm) and the .338 Lapua Magnum (8.6 x 70 mm). Both cartridges
are literally universal and have proven their accuracy and terminal ability in countless law
enforcement and military missions. Good factory loads, multiple projectile weights and
factory special application ammunition is available in both calibers.
