Cheytac LRRS is a relatively compact and lightweight rifle, which can provide long-range accurate anti-personnel shooting. In order to achieve this goal, a high-precision bullet named 48 CheyTac caliber was specially designed. According to some sources, the 48 CheyTac bomb was designed by Professor john tyler, while others claimed that it was designed by Warren Jensen of Lost River Ballistic Technologies, which closed down in 21, and he was also the patent owner of the balanced flight projectile of the warhead (U.S. Patent No.6,629,669).
the full size of the p>.48 CheyTac bullet is between 5 BMG and 338 Lapua The shape of the warhead adopts the optimized low-resistance shape. This design makes the warhead with a weight of 419 grains (about 27.15 grams) still maintain supersonic speed at a distance of 2, meters. Because of its high storage speed, the .48 bullet has more kinetic energy than the ordinary warhead with a weight of 5 BMG at a distance of 7 meters. Because the .48 bullet is also lighter than the 5 BMG bullet, which is only about 1/3 of its weight, the recoil is also relatively small. The storage speed is high, so the trajectory of 48 CheyTac is straighter and the effective range is longer than that of 5 BMG or 338 Lapua. Later, a 375 CheyTac caliber with equal scale reduction was developed.
