In-game description
A 7.62x54mm R SNB gzh (GRAU Index - 7N14) cartridge with a 9.8 gram armor-piercing bullet with a pointed heat-strengthened steel core over a lead base with a bimetallic jacket, in a bimetallic case. This SNB cartridge (SNíperskiy s Bronebóynoy púley - "Sniper with Armor-piercing bullet") was developed in the mid-1990s as a modernization of the 7.62x54mm R PS gzh cartridge to improve its penetration capabilities when fired from a sniper or designated marksman rifles, managing of piercing specialized ballistic body protections as well as providing a significant stopping power effect.
Against which armor
Penetration 62 is above the resistance of class 6 armor (60) — while such armor is intact, the round penetrates it more often than not. Against class 6, penetrations are rare until the armor is worn down.
For example, the vests it can defeat: 6B43 Zabralo-Sh body armor (EMR), FORT Redut-T5 body armor (Smog), NFM THOR Integrated Carrier body armor. The full table is in the armor classes guide.
