The .408 CheyTac may well be the ultimate cartridge for long-range sniper use. It has better ballistics than a .338 Lapua, and, past 1000 yards, it retains more energy than even a 50 BMG round. That means a more effective hit… at ranges out to two miles. See the video below for a field test of the CheyTac.

The rifle cost 10-13K depending upon where you buy and how its completed. If purchased with suppressor and other gear as shown above you will invest no less than 15-18K. Suppressor is STW and made of Titanium. It is a great rifle and is manufactured by http://www.Cheytac.com. If you want a more economical choice you can purchase the EDM Windrunner in 408 and it’s a great rifle too and shoots as good and can be found at http://www.edmarms.com. Many of the design features are similar and Cheytac and EDM collaborated until difference separated them.
This firearm with out the optics or suppressor is $13,000, a box of ammo is around $1200 for 200 rounds.
So its not for the penny pincher firearms enthusiast.
