Small Arms And Sidearms

The McMillan TAC-50 is a long range, bolt action, .50 caliber anti materiel rifle built by McMillan Firearms of Phoenix, Arizona, developed from earlier .50 caliber designs by the company in the late 1980s. It entered service with the Canadian Army as the C15 in 2000, and rifles of this type have twice held the record for the longest confirmed sniper kill, from March 2002 to November 2009 and again from May 2017 to November 2023.
