> The Galil SNR is a sniper rifle, as is the Galatz. I hadn't looked at Galil configurations since the mid-eighties, and I was going by the caliber, which the 5.56mm isn't a sniping round by any stretch of the imagination. The SNR might *look* like a sniper rifle, but the ballistics of the cartridge don't bear it out.
It looks like the Galat'z would be considered a "real" sniper rifle because it fires a real cartridge (same one we use in our M40). I love the .308 Winchester cartridge (sorry for the civvy-talk). It just fires so flat and sounds so good. Feels right in your hand when you load it. I had a HK G3 (actually the civilian variant) once. I should have never let it go...
