New PGM Precision Ultima Ratio Sniper Rifle
Thirty-one years after the creation of the Ultima Ratio, the first rifle of the brand, the French company PGM Precision reinvents and upgrades their classical sniper rifle. The rifle is intended for both operational and sporting shooters. Initially designed for French police snipers, the Ultima Ratio is a high-precision rifle capable of handling targets up to 1000 meters. The rifle was designed for .308 Winchester, but it’s now available in a long list of calibers like 6.5 Creedmoor, 6XC and .260 Rem.

Looks like the Sniper rifle Kel Tec had in his booth 10 years ago at IWA Germany. I think it was a shared booth between KelTec and PGM? I'm not joking.
Just another dressed up bolt rifle with an ULTIMA price tag and a soon to be bent top rail.
