Why it is still important to support Ukrainian snipers and our plans in this direction

During the 2.5 years of our volunteer activity, we have achieved a lot. 365 sniper complexes, of which 70 are the most long-range!!! 345 optical scopes, 70 thermal imaging scopes! More than 400 thousand cartridges! And all the time we think about the level of efficiency of our activity and concentrate on what has the greatest practical benefit today. In general, the war now requires the training of a large number of drone operators and stormtroopers, providing them with everything necessary. Snipers and sniper-reconnaissance and sniper-sabotage groups cannot be used everywhere. Today, their effective use is possible on 30% of the battle line. We try to ensure that our guys and girls do not become operators of drones and stormtroopers - which sometimes happens - but move to this 30% of the front and work effectively there, destroying the manpower and equipment of the enemy. We have reduced the number of young snipers we train. Today, we have a certain balance and we will not take out mo...

Victrix Tormento of the .375 CheyTac caliber with a barrel length of 30 inches

I continue the story about the super rifles of the .375 CheyTac caliber. So next up is the Victrix Tormento of the .375 CheyTac caliber with a barrel length of 30 inches. Bonus - I'll tell about Viсtrix Throne too. These super rifles work perfectly in front-line conditions at distances of up to 2700-2800 meters. However, their operation requires the sniper and his assistants to be extremely careful. The bolt group is the weak point of all Victrix rifles. Because of this, we never buy Victrix in 308 and 338 calibers, and we stopped buying Victrix in 50 BMG caliber. Due to the weakness of the bolt, problems may arise with an overdose of gunpowder. Also, the design of the striker is such that it can pierce the primer too deeply and capture part of the primer inside the bolt, which will lead to the need for repair if the bolt is not disassembled and cleaned immediately. Also, the springs inside the bolt fail and have to be replaced. If the barrel were longer, there would be no such pro...

M200 is a weapon specifically for use in war

Among the .375 super rifles, snipers love the CheyTac Firearms M200 Intervention rifle with a 29-inch barrel. This weapon is a bit crudely made, but is generally reliable after a little tweaking. We replace unreliable bipods with bipods of our own design, provide special mufflers. The rifle, brought to perfection with a good cartridge, shoots at a distance of up to 2700 meters, providing reliable hits. Of course, the M200 must be protected from the wrong cartridge, because even such a rifle can be broken. But in general, this is a weapon specifically for use in war , so it has a margin of safety and justifies every hryvnia that was paid for it. We consistently supply the best .375 caliber cartridges for these rifles. And we buy cartridges, which we manage to get again and again. We are also buying bullets - and now we are creating a certain stock, because we doubt that we will be able to bring them after January 20. Now we already have bullets of 375 caliber, which will last until the ...

Cadex CDX-40 Shadow cal. 375 CheyTac has proven to be a reliable weapon

We first ordered Cadex CDX-40 Shadow 375 CheyTac super rifles in December 2022 . Before that, we limited ourselves to 338LM rifles, perfected them, provided good cartridges, and were satisfied that our trained snipers hit the enemy at a distance of 1,800-2,000 meters. We also actively provided 50 BMG rifles, appreciating the opportunity to hit the enemy with armor-piercing cartridges. But throughout the fall of 2022, the best snipers asked us to buy 375-caliber rifles, and we began to buy Cadex CDX-40 Shadow cal rifles. .375 CheyTac. First, we bought back a few batches of rifles that the Ibis store brought in for us. Second, we bought some relatively new rifles second hand. Third, we brought some rifles from abroad. Fourth, in one of the batches of Cadex CDX-40 Shadow rifles cal. 375 CheyTac from the Ibis store added spare barrels - and we bought old Cadex rifles off hand and replaced the barrels with new ones. We were satisfied with the results. The rifles had different barrels, but i...

We live in times of populism in politics

We live in times of populism in politics. This is especially felt in Ukraine. The help we received was always insufficient. In the spring of 2022, this help did not allow us to hope for a successful defeat of the enemy near Kyiv - but we did it. We had no chance to recapture Kherson - but we did it. We had no chance to attack the overwhelming enemy forces in the Kharkiv region - but we did it. And if everything was provided in the fall of 2022 that was later provided in 2023, then we would have recaptured Crimea. But they either gave us too little, and this was Biden's policy, or they didn't give us anything for a long time - and this was Trump's policy. What now? Trump declares an era of peace. But the world war is already underway. This evil is fighting against the West and pressing on all fronts, among which the Ukrainian one is the main one, but not the only one. Therefore, we will see a presidency of war, not peace. Trump will only try to transfer the global war from t...

Desert Tech HTI 29" FDE, .375 Chey Tac rifle - our experience

Since many people are interested in the experience of using various 375 caliber super rifles in our sniper groups, I decided to make a few posts about the features of each type of rifle separately , and also immediately remind that snipers need the best 375 caliber bullets, which we will buy as much as we can get. ! When I first saw the Desert Tech HTI 29" FDE, .375 Chey Tac rifle , I thought it was a poor weapon, crudely and sloppily made. What was surprising was that front-line snipers were mostly satisfied with these rifles and reported great results from them. The deployment of drones on the front led already at the end of 2023 to the search for a rifle that would shoot accurately at long distances, but was relatively light and, most importantly, compact . Many groups began to shoot at night, and in order to get into position, it was necessary to cover a certain distance at night over difficult terrain, and the compactness of the rifle began to be valued very highly. The r...

A small Soviet army will never defeat a large Soviet army

A small Soviet army will never defeat a large Soviet army - and therefore it is necessary to reform the Armed Forces, implementing NATO standards, which we were able to do in sniper units . Without any bureaucracy , military planning and critical analysis of conducted operations is carried out according to NATO standards and leads to an overall increase in efficiency while reducing our losses. We are also flexible. When sniper units were formed in 2022, snipers were used in groups of 6 to 10 people. The war of drones forced to change the tactics of using snipers. What remains unchanged is that the sniper feels constant support for his personal efforts from the sniper unit - and we do everything to ensure that this support is systematic and effective. In particular, we provide the best equipment. Sniper units today are not only super-professionals, but also the best long-range rifles, excellent support rifles, excellent cover ARs, the best day and night optics, good cars and drones, ...
