VM-2000 12.7x108mm anti-materiel rifle

From modernfirearms:

The VM-2000 large caliber sniper / anti-materiel rifle was developed by the Russian KBP -‘Instrument Design Bureau’, a private enterprise and a main section of the Tula works. KBP develop weapons and weapon systems for the Russian Army. The VM-2000 project came about during the early 2000’s. It was designed for official requirements issued under the codename “Breaker” (Взломщик).

For undisclosed reasons, the manufacturer decided to abandon this rifle in favor of the self-loading 12.7mm OSV-96 rifle, developed by the same organization and for the same requirements. Only a very few prototypes of the VM-2000 rifle were actually produced, for testing in 2002.
