A '''sniper rifle''' is a rifle used to ensure more accurate placement of bullets at longer ranges than with other 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 sniper rifle is often used in the media to describe any type of accurate firearm fitted with a telescopic sight that is employed against human targets, however ''"sniping rifle"'' and/or ''"sniper's rifle"'' are technically the correct way to refer to such a rifle.
