The SVCh-308 is loosely based on the scaled-up MA Dragunov design and is being developed for the three most common military rifle cartridges, the 7.62×51 NATO, 7.62x54R and .338 Lapua Magnum (also known as 8.62x69mm). Between the two 7.62mm versions, the rifle has a very high commonality of parts. The .338LM SVCh-8.6 rifle however, has a necessarily larger receiver, magazine housing and bolt group.

The SVCh rifle has an inverted U-shaped receiver, made from steel and a solid top that offers a stable platform for optics, with integrated Picatinny rail. The trigger and magazine housing unit is made from lightweight alloy.

The rifle features short stroke piston gas operated action and rotary bolt locking. A manual gas regulator ensures smooth and reliable operation under all conditions, with or without sound suppressor. Rifle is fed from detachable box magazines. In 7.62x54R version, it uses magazines compatible with the Dragunov SVD sniper rifle. In 7.62×51 NATO and in .338LM  it uses proprietary magazines with standard and high capacity.

This rifle features ambidextrous controls. A side folding stock is adjustable for length of pull. Standard accessories include detachable folding bipod and quick-detachable tactical sound suppressor.

Best all purpose rifle cartridge ever made. Becoming more popular means lower priced ammo for us.

Scoped, red dot, and even a laser in one package. The “Don’t worry Sir; I’m from the internet” guy may have been on to something. :)
