What are the advantages of 375 caliber rifles?

Every day is a struggle for the survival of sniper groups! And in second place is the struggle for results. Such is the reality today. And what are the advantages of 375 caliber rifles ? They solve both tasks at the same time ! Initially, we fell in love with them for their effectiveness. Because they showed excellent results at distances from hundreds of meters to 2700 m, some snipers even swept away enemy officers at 3 km. And yet it seemed to us that it was expensive, so we could not support the mass use of this caliber. But the figures about the huge difference in sniper survival prompted us to start buying and transferring more and more 375 caliber rifles. It prompted us to help snipers with scopes for 375 caliber rifles, bought by the guys themselves or for those issued by the state if necessary! The best scopes are needed to hit the enemy with the first shot , to not give the enemy a chance to respond effectively. And again, survival statistics have confirmed - a 375 caliber rif...

A high-quality, almost ideal cartridge is a work of art

Long-range, ultra-precise .375 caliber cartridges are an opportunity to improve many orcs by shooting from a safe distance for snipers. 1. How safe does the .375 caliber allow a sniper to be? It would seem that super-pros with .375 caliber rifles also take risks, and indeed their work is huge risks on every mission. But there is only one but: of all the snipers with .375 caliber rifles that we help, only two have died during the years of the great invasion. One from accidental fire, one was ambushed while returning to the rear after work. This is a fact. This is very little, much less than the losses among those who work with .338 caliber and incomparably less than the losses among those who work with .308 caliber. 2. How important is a good cartridge when working with .375 caliber rifles. A good cartridge is of absolute importance! If the cartridge is not of the highest quality, the enemy's hit distance is immediately reduced by DOUBLE. De facto, with an imperfect 375th caliber ca...

Discussions about the Horizon's Lord rifles

The transfer of the Horizon's Lord rifles by the state to the Defense Forces of Ukraine has caused a discussion about their effectiveness, ease of use and specifics of application. In order not to argue, I will present my vision. The Horizon's Lord rifles are given to large sniper units - platoons and companies. They are given 4-5 pieces, in fact as additional weapons . The main weapon of sniper groups operating at long distances is .375 caliber rifles , which hit the enemy at a distance of up to 3 km. Also, the groups traditionally have a lot of .338 caliber rifles, which work at a distance of up to 2 km. This creates a reliable kill zone, in combination with reconnaissance drones and kamikaze drones, it is generally a continuous extermination zone. There are always those who want to get rifles in the 375 caliber: Desert Tech as the most convenient for snipers (562,000 UAH), Victrix Tormento as a completely acceptable option (432,000 UAH), Victrix Throne as the most long-range...

About some commanders

Snipers are increasingly talking sadly about some commanders who ask them to leave all their super rifles, take assault rifles and work like regular infantry. According to these commanders, in times of drone warfare, a sniper on the battlefield cannot survive and work. The guys explain to such commanders: You want me to work at a distance of 50 to 300 meters with an assault rifle, in the same conditions of drones hunting me - and how do I become more resilient? In reality, not only drones will be waiting for me, but also bullets from the enemy, who will have the opportunity to shoot at me from close range. Indeed, on the battlefield in normal units, snipers are now systematically knocking out enemy manpower at a distance of 2 km. Yes, this is a risk, because drones are trying to find and neutralize our snipers. But that is what high art is, to survive and hit the enemy by taking reasonable risks! And the operators of our reconnaissance drones in normal units coordinate the fire of sni...

About Assault Forces

These days I am constantly asked what I think about Assault Forces, since this topic interests many, and we help snipers of several assault regiments. I will answer right away about our situation, and then about assault troops as a separate phenomenon in general. Our situation is very simple. We help large sniper groups that have good snipers and support personnel (reconnaissance, machine gunners, drivers, drone operators, sappers), have good group commanders and good instructors, and also have the full support of the command at the battalion, regiment, brigade, corps levels. Of course, we receive offers to take on the patronage of new sniper pairs from our snipers regarding their friends from other units who have already proven their professionalism. Also, a significant percentage of new groups are recommendations from our instructors, who often know the guys since 2014 and have seen their entire development at every step. After checking the level of snipers, we learn about their stat...

Results of our previous activities and priorities for the future

When the long summer of 2025 began, I was full of pessimistic premonitions. We already had a hole from October 2023 to April 2024, when there were a lot of losses at the front among snipers, and I was afraid that we would again find ourselves in a systemic crisis. Let me remind you that since April 2024, the situation in terms of losses has stabilized only thanks to enormous efforts to additionally provide sniper groups , to switch to .375 caliber rifles, to build systematic defense on the battlefield. The problem of the summer of 2025 was similar, but bigger : if losses began to increase again in geometric progression, we simply would not be able to find any universal high-quality solutions that would improve the situation. In the spring of 2025, I decided to make the main efforts to maximally strengthen the protection of snipers from drones , providing everyone with electronic warfare, rifles for shooting down drones and, most importantly, unique thermal imaging collimators for these...

Why we train marksmen and not invest everything exclusively at the longest-range sniper groups

I am asked why we train marksmen, invest time and resources, and not throw everything exclusively at sniper groups fighting with the longest-range rifles? Today I came across an interesting testimony from the front. Svyatoslav Yavorivsky ( slavko.yavir on fb): "The effectiveness of shooting with an AK-74 or AR-15 at 300-400 m is practically zero, and cartridges cost money. A machine gun firing point immediately becomes a target for drones.  No one has canceled infantry combat, but we need to return to the good old mass sniping, that is, marksmen. The Finns once completely demoralized the Red Army in this way. A detachment of stormtroopers should be supported by one machine gun and two marksmen (local accurate separate shooters). This is not a sniper with a two-meter "paddle" of large caliber, but an accurate shooter at 400-500 m, with a semi-automatic rifle, who supports defensive combat or assault from cover. The Americans have been doing this for a long time. To train...
