This is the Sniper rifle the Canadian Sniper Corps uses! What is it, and what is that scope? Looks pretty sweet!

Without seeing the round it fires I might be wrong but I would have to say it's their .338 Lapua Magnum rifle.  McMillan A5 stock, not sure what action they are using, and it's topped with a US Optics 3.2-17x44 w/EREK knobs.  You are right about one thing its probably one hell of a weapon.

That rifle is called a Timberwolfe.  The Cunucks use 338-Lapua but you can also get it in 408-Cheyenne, the reciver is made out of titanium and it comes with a titanium 40 minute picatinny rail. It's one hell of a bang-stick in tials it beat out a lot of heavy compatition just to name a few, Sako's TRG 41&42, Englands RPA-BMF, Accuracy International's AWM, Sig's Blaser LRS-2, and the FN PGM Mini-Hecate. Oh and you can have one of your own if you don't mind dropping about 6 grand (ouch) It's been on my Christmas list for a couple a years now but Santa still hasn't brought me one, guess I've been naughty!

I wish! The answer is NO! I'm pretty shure that's just for the rifle and 1 magazine.

That USO SN-3 w/ lit reticle probably goes for around $2500 US, I would think.

Maybe more.

 

Wicked SWS!!
