| abstract | - The PGM .338 LM (also know as the PGM .338 Lapua Magnum, PGM 338 or PGM Mini-Hecate .338) is a powerful French-designed and -manufactured sniper rifle. It fires the .338 Lapua Magnum (8.6 x 70 mm) ammunition which remains supersonic up to a range of 1200 to 1500 meters depending on the exact ammunition type and environmental conditions. The PGM .338 LM is intended to fulfill a long-range anti-personnel role, and fills the gap between the lighter 7.62 × 51 mm (.308) anti-personnel sniper rifles, which do not have sufficient maximum effective range to be effectively used at long distances, and larger .50 BMG (12.7 x 99) anti-materiel rifles, which lack the portability of lighter sniper rifles. The PGM .338 LM rifle was designed by Chris L. Movigliatti of the Swiss AMSD company and is made by the PGM Precision of France. The rifle is sold worldwide through the prominent Belgian gun manufacturer FN Herstal and its subsidiaries.
