IWS_2000
An Austrian single-shot [[bolt action]] [[anti-materiel rifle]] produced by Steyr Mannlicher, designed in mid-1980s. [b]IWS[/b] stands for Infantry Weapon System. Like many anti-tank rifles, it is actually a smoothbore weapon. This can help accelerate projectiles and increase ballistic effectiveness, but the lack of rifling imparting inertial stability requires the projectile to have stabilizing fins. It is chambered in a 15.2×169 mm armor-piercing fin-stabilized discarding-sabot [[ammunition|cartridge]], and is the first man-portable rifle to use this type of ammunition.
