Historical profile
Introduced in 2004 by Steyr Mannlicher as a modern evolution of the SSG 69, optimised for police and special-forces use.
Available in .308 Winchester, .300 Win Mag and .338 Lapua Magnum, it features a Safe Bolt System action with four locking lugs and polymer detachable magazines.
Adopted by European and Middle-Eastern units, it is appreciated for its compactness and the sub-MOA accuracy delivered even by the short-barrel versions.
