Battle rifles are a class of military firearms designed for long-range, high-powered combat. They are typically characterized by their use of full-sized rifle cartridges, such as the 7.62x51mm NATO round. Battle rifles are typically issued to infantrymen and other frontline troops, and are used for engaging enemy targets at ranges of up to 600 meters.
Battle rifles have been used in combat for over a century, and have proven to be effective in a wide range of environments. They are particularly well-suited for use in open terrain, where long-range accuracy is important. However, battle rifles are also relatively heavy and bulky, which can make them difficult to use in close quarters combat. As a result, battle rifles have been largely replaced by assault rifles in many militaries around the world.
