Ammunition
The SV-98M is chambered for the 7N1 or 7N14 7.62x54R mm sniper cartridges and it has a magazine capacity of 10 rounds. The 7.62×54mmR is mainly used in sniper rifles like the Dragunov sniper rifle and machine guns like the PKM. To increase accuracy for the Dragunov SVD sniper rifle, the Soviets developed the 7N1 variant of the cartridge in 1966. The 7N1 was replaced in 1999 by the 7N14 special load developed for the SVD. The 7N14 round is loaded with a 9.8 g (151.2 gr) projectile containing a sharp hardened steel penetrator to improve penetration which is fired with an average muzzle velocity of 830 m/s (2,723 ft/s), for a muzzle energy of 2,489 ft·lbf. To reduce sound blast, blowback and flash, the SV-98M can be supplied with a tactical silencer.
