So this model looks good finished up and all but man, am i glad to finally be done working on it. In all, I spent way more time than I had planned just concepting this model out, just couldn't seem to get the look that I wanted. Took a lot of inspiration from real world rifles, the M110, AS50, the Stealth Recon Scout, a bit of the L96A1 (although there's not much of its design that made it to this version). In the end I do like the looks of this model very much, turned out exactly as I wanted it to, big, deadly and powerful. I thought it would be nice for the UNMC to have at least one bolt action rifle in their arsenal since they seem to convey a sense of raw power and sharp accuracy to go along with it. I also decided to branch out and try to model some things I'd never done or had minimal experience on, such as the rail covers, more conventional scope, cylindrical bipod, and even the inside of the bolt. Hope you guys like this one

Full Designation: HP Armored Corps Superior Precision Rifle- Model 2352
Manufacturer: HP industries
Type: Bolt action sniper rifle
Introduced: 2352
Magazine capacity: 5 rounds
Cartridge: .338 x 60 mm Sabre Magnum
Effective range: 1,000
Max effective range: 2,200 meters
Muzzle Velocity: 3,050 ft/sec

The newest entry into the UNMC, the ACSP is a weapon that is unusual when stacked against the other sniper rifles in the military arsenal. Namely this is because the rifle is a bolt action weapon, and is in fact the first time such a weapon has seen extended use in the UNMC for over 50 years, the last of which was the M126 rifle that served for a short time during the Rebel Insurrection. The ACSP is even more peculiar in that it was designed for and currently only used by the UN Armored Corps, and is issued mostly to highly trained snipers or special forces due to the relative short supply of rifles. The ACSP was conceptualized just 1 year after the start of the Human-Exohuman War on Earth, and was made to be a catalyst for the newly developed .338 Sabre cartridge. The round itself was being specifically developed for the UN Armored Corps to address the Exohumans, being notoriously more difficult to kill than a human combatant. While the highly powerful M-130 ASR could take them down rather easily, it was slow, heavy, bulky, and outrageously loud which didn't complement the type of fast paced combat needed to fight Exohumans. The ACSP seemed to be the answer to this problem. Going from conception to the initial development and experimental stage quite quickly, the ACSP (then known as the X-M46) gathered much initial interest from UNMC officials and the project continued development until the final models were shown in 2349. After field testing the rifle for almost another year, the consensus was overwhelmingly positive on its abilities to put enemies down with the .338 round and full production went into swing shortly after. By 2352 the rifle had been officially dubbed the "Armored Corps Superior Precision-Model 2352" and found a warm welcome in the UNAC who praised its ease of use, lighter weight, and fearsome accuracy and punch. Although the M-130 still serves a much larger amount of UNAC troops, the ACSP is gaining traction and is starting to see a lot more front line use.
