In [[military]] and law enforcement terminology, a sniper rifle is a [[rifle]] used to ensure accurate placement of bullets at longer ranges than small arms. A typical sniper rifle is built for optimal levels of accuracy, fitted with a [[telescopic sight]] and chambered for a military centerfire cartridge. The term is often used in the media to describe any type of accurized firearm fitted with a telescopic sight that is employed against human targets, although "sniping rifle" or "sniper's rifle" is the technically correct fashion to refer to such a rifle. Not to be confused with the [[anti-materiel rifle]], the sniper rifle's big brother, although they operate in a similar fashion and serve similar purposes. h4.
