C14 Timberwolf facts for kids

The C14 Timberwolf MRSWS is a powerful sniper rifle that was first designed in Canada. It's a special type of rifle called a "bolt-action" rifle, which means the shooter has to manually load each bullet by moving a part called a bolt. This rifle is known for its accuracy and long range, making it useful for highly skilled marksmen.

What Makes the C14 Timberwolf Special?

The C14 Timberwolf is built to be very precise. It uses a powerful type of bullet called the .338 Lapua Magnum. This bullet travels incredibly fast, leaving the rifle at over 823 meters per second (that's about 2,700 feet per second!). Because of its speed and design, the C14 Timberwolf can hit targets that are very far away. It has a maximum effective range of 1,500 meters, which is about 1 mile! This means a trained sniper can aim and hit a target from a distance equal to 15 football fields lined up end-to-end.

Who Uses the C14 Timberwolf?

This advanced sniper rifle has been used by soldiers in real-world situations. For example, it was used during the Afghanistan War. Its ability to hit targets from a great distance makes it a valuable tool for military forces that need to observe or engage targets from a safe and hidden position.
