Love the mod, Thank you
How about a 12.7, Something like a McMillan TAC-50

@Steve Yes i know the standard and they are compatible each other. Ammos physical size is also different. Shouldn't the guns name be different if .308 ammo isn't available or are you planning to bring some love for .308 to the game, that would be very nice addition? Plz? ;)

@baldtunE
7.62x51 is the NATO standard of .308. They are identical calibre - a bit like .223 and 5.56x45.
Technically, they are not identical. .308 has a higher max pressure than 7.62 and 5.56 has a higher max pressure than .223 but discounting this, they are interchangeable.

When selecting any of .308 version in arsenal , magazine says 7.62mm, typo or?

hi, would you consider implementing a bolt action animation? i believe toadie/niarms have open source animations

@AdamTheWold#550 as long as it's not monetised, yes

Is isnt available in Editor in the Weapons section, So i can't place it or use a rifle for a composition. Do you know how to bypass that ?
Thx

can you make some even shorter barrel variants for .300 & .308 version but with less damage, less range, less weight... etc, and also make them compatible with bipods & suppressors from other mods say cup, rhs... etc.

Thanks @Steve, apologize me again. I will correct this.

@Fercho - It wasn't a 'collection' it was a re-pack and re-upload to the Steam Workshop.
Publisher is now very explicit and makes you check a box to say you own the IP to anything you post. (Which you've clearly ignored.)

But let me be clear, I don't want to stop anyone using my mods. However additional uploading to the workshop not only violates my IP but also causes all mod makers massive headaches with maintenance of mods. Let's say that in the next A3 2.12 release, I need to fix some bugs that it causes - I can only control / fix those bugs for people that download directly from this page.

I would be delighted for you to continue to use this mod but via a collection, an A3 Launcher Preset or even by making a dummy mod where you set this mod to be a dependency through the workshop options.
These are all much better solutions than re-packing!

For info, if no license is stated it ALWAYS means the strictest license applies.

Hi Steve, I need to talk with you. I used your mod in a collection, and it was reported. I want to apologise, I don't see a note about the author prohibition to use. I will remove the content and use this directly from the link of your mod. I´m really sorry.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LqxskXKA2gw the sound from tarkov axmc would make this mod a 10/10 but still without it best sniper rifle mod so far

I clearly must be illiterate because I never saw that in the name until I looked just now. Thank you for your help!

Glad you're enjoying it!
I should probably use more of the descriptive sections to make it more obvious but, for example, the following magazine
.338 LM 250gr Naturalis 10Rnd Mag
fires 250 grain Naturalis rounds.

i never saw that on there, i'll have to look again. I've been using the .338 with the berger rounds in an antistasi server with my friends and im loving it so far

Most of them state how many grains the rounds are. Obviously higher = heavier.

I'm assuming the OTM rounds are the heavier ones then

No. They do all behave differently but not necessarily representative of what you'd expect in reality. E.g. because there's no wind affecting rounds in Vanilla, lighter projectiles tend to be better at long range in Vanilla as they fly faster so have flatter trajectories. Where as in reality, heavier & slower round tend to be preferred for long range shooting as vertical deflection due to gravity is easier to predict than the effects of wind. (Which affect heavier projectiles less.)

So without ACE, they both behave the same?

@SovietToastCrunch yes but the implementation is more meant for ACE3. So differences in Vanilla aren't necessarily representative of what you'd expect in reality

Is there any functional difference between the two ammo types for the .338?

Ok I fixed it,the problem was that there were no scope options

@AbsolutelyNobody - erm... exactly the same way as any other weapon platform.
Just select the scope you want in the arsenal...
Not really sure I understand your problem though

How do I attach scopes?

Thanks for the mod man

@MrJimbos
There's no mechanic within the game that this mod touches that can do that so highly likely to be a clash with another mod.
Or a dodgy mouse.
Simply isn't possible to be done within a mod that's just inheriting characteristics from an existing rifle....

fires randomly without pulling trigger lol. In Stealth 1 second then Next....splat

@The Operator, yes, there's even one included in the pack.

@Predator14 yes - it's still a Vanilla animation at the moment as has been stated many times already. I've not had time to add anything other than this.
Obviously I'd be delighted if someone with such a discerning eye as yourself would be prepared to make a better animation and donate it such that we can all enjoy your immense wisdom, talent and good taste....

bad animation dude !

Is it suppressor compatible?

Sounds like Steam has not updated your mods for you. (Sometimes it's quite slow to realise there's updates.)
If you right click on each of the SPS mods in the Arma3 launcher and choose 'repair' it should force them to update

@Schaer
The error was repeatable without running any other mods and this should be fixed now.
I think the M8541A+AN/PVS-27 is RHS not CUP. This should now be available on the rifle.

Thanks for bringing those bugs to my attention.

For info, SPS Equipment has some long range scopes with and without clip on night vision devices which can be added and removed with ACE3 self interactions.

OK - I can re-create this error.
No idea why and where this comes from because all the paths look correct.
I'll see if I can sort it and send an update tomorrow

I'll look into that - thanks for the report.
(Didn't see any of that when last testing though... so might be other mod compatibility errors.)

Hey Steve, good mod! But...Ace compat addon breaks a mag icons and spam a error while u open mag page with a ur mode weapon in arsenal. Can u fix it?

ill check it out thank you

For info, there's a PVS24-LR as part of SPS Equipment that you should be able to add/remove to/from the S&B scopes (with ACE interaction). Might tide you over until I get round to sorting the joint rails.

it would be super appreciated i use the .338 almost exclusively!

It's possible I've only update Joint Rails in the combined version of this mod in SPS Weapons
I'll try to have a look when I get chance

anyone else having trouble putting the M8541A + AN/PVS-27 on these rifles?

@yadidbala yes, but if you want to use it with ACE3, I'd strongly suggest you also use the ACE3 compatibility mod. See above for the link

is it compatible with ace ?

at a distance the bullets just go through the enemy but don't kill them, you have any idea where the problem is coming from ?

OK, thanks

@jcgau7227 a compatible silencer is included in this mod.

is there a way to mount a silencer ?

Ok, I hope there will be better later then! ;) otherwise no, I'm a levels designer, not an animator sorry.

@Predator - yes - that's already a discussion point. The animations are just vanilla animations synced as closely as possible to this geometry.
As stated, if/when I have time, I'll look to do something better.

If you've got time, skill and the inclination to make animations, I'd be delighted to include your improved versions with this mod.

pretty weapon, my animation very poorly done and late compared to the movement of the hand ...

I'll take a look at SPS Equipment and test those out, cheers.
