ORSIS T-5000
The ORSIS T-5000 is a Russian bolt-action sniper rifle. It was the first product developed by ORSIS, and is produced in their Moscow factory. The rifle was introduced in 2011 at the international exhibition of Russian weapons in Nizhny Tagil, and is entirely original, using no third-party components. According to General Director of the Institute for Precision Machine Engineering TsNIITochMash, Dmitry Semiozerov: "As of 2017, the newest sniper complex T-5000 "Precision" was adopted by the FSB, the FSO, and Rosgvardiya".
Design
In its standard configuration the T-5000 is equipped with a 660 mm fluted, stainless steel barrel, cut to a twist rate between 1-in-10 and 1-in-12 depending on customer requirements.The stainless steel stock adopts a highly "skeletal" design, with highly adjustable butt and cheekpiece components mounted on a folding stock that reduces the transport length of the T-5000 by around 250 mm. The trigger is adjustable from 500 g in its Varmint configuration, to over 1500 g depending on application, and a Picatinny rail is provided for the attachment of optics.
Variants
The Federal Security Service, the Federal Protective Service and the National Guard in 2017 adopted a next-gen ORSIS T-5000, and designated it as the Tochnost sniper rifle chambered in 7.62×51mm NATO and .338 Lapua Magnum.A next-gen T-5000 'Tochnost' sniper rifle chambered in .375 CheyTac and made for rough military conditions was tested in the Moscow Region. Its range is over. The tests were successfully completed in 2019.
There is also a variant of T-5000 chambered in 12.7 × 108 mm known as ORSIS 12.7, intended for anti-materiel roles. This variant was first introduced during the ARMY-2022 exhibition held in Russia in August 2022.
