In-game description
A 7.62x54mm R PS gzh (GRAU Index - 7N1) cartridge with a 9.8 gram bullet with a pointed steel core over a lead base with a bimetallic jacket, in a bimetallic case. This PS cartridge was developed by TsNIITochMash in the mid-1960s from the 7.62x54mm R LPS gzh cartridge specifically to increase its accuracy when fired from a sniper or designated marksman rifles, such as the SVD and its variants, being able of piercing through basic and intermediate ballistic body protections as well as providing an outstanding stopping power effect.
Against which armor
Penetration 45 is above the resistance of class 4 armor (40) — while such armor is intact, the round penetrates it more often than not. Against class 5, penetrations are rare until the armor is worn down.
For example, the vests it can defeat: 6B23-2 body armor (Mountain Flora), Interceptor OTV body armor (UCP), 6B13 assault armor (Flora). The full table is in the armor classes guide.
