Ideový návrh odstřelovací pušky ráže .338 Lapua Magnum

Abstract

This bachelor’s thesis focuses on the conceptual design of a .338 Lapua Magnum sniper rifle, the construction trends of sniper rifles chambered for this cartridge, and the cartridge itself. The introductory part provides an overview of the history and development of weapon systems leading up to this calibre. Based on the conducted research, the construction approaches of various manufacturers are compared, and the main development trends are identified. These findings form the basis for the author’s own conceptual design of a sniper rifle intended for engagements beyond 1 500 meters, including the design of key components and the selection of suitable accessories. The conclusion evaluates the applicability of the proposed solution and its alignment with current trends in the development of modern sniper rifles.
