The .300 Win Mag SSG 08 is Steyr's extreme long-range precision variant, extending the platform's effective engagement envelope to 1,500 meters and beyond with match ammunition. The 23.6-inch barrel is the minimum practical length for the .300 Win Mag to achieve full velocity potential. Recoil is substantially higher than the .308 variant; the SSG 08's adjustable stock and muzzle brake mitigate but do not eliminate the additional felt recoil.
