Tracking Point - Anyone Seen This Before?

[Alsone 789]

Anyone seen this before?

 

If no civilian banned this could be about to take most of the skill out of shooting for those with deep pockets ($15,900 for the 7.62mm!).

 

There is a bolt action in .338. Presumably they might offer one in 7.62 potentially making it more widely attractive to the civilian market, other legalities allowing.

 

The system is called tracking point which uses laser designation and tracking to assign targets and then automatically calculates a firing solution that is updated in real time.

 

 

 

 

 

This older archived video suggest civilian application:

I remember way back in the 70s when a laser was shown to be the ultimate sniper device. Once you locked on to a target with the laser......................you couldn't miss.

 

 

Yeh right.

Yeah here it controls the trigger. It locks a laser onto the target, you pull the trigger and it adjusts the reticule in real time to match distance etc, but it doesn't fire. It fires automatically when you guide the cross hairs onto the lock on point even if they cross momentarily. Claims it works even if you or the target are moving. Looks very impressive from the videos.

 

Only thing that wasn't clear to me was what happens about windage?
