Design

The rifle is equipped with an adjustable stock with integrated monopod in support of more stability and accuracy while shooting. A special ergonomic and orthopedic grip was installed in order to provide comfort by reducing the muscle strain of the user hand to a minimum. Active-reactive muzzle breaks reduce overall recoil. The base design can be further altered and modified

Modularity

The rifle design allows a bicaliber setup with yet unspecified details. A total of 7 cartridge types can be fired with the weapon, ranging from .308 Win to .50 BMG giving it penetration capabilities against both soft and lightly armoured targets.

Accuracy

The designer states an overall accuracy of 0.3 MOA field tested with bipod. Fixed may be more accurate.

Designation

The name "Satevari" derives from a type of ceremonial Georgian dagger which is being carried together with a traditional national dress called Chokha. The specific designation may be implication to the rifle's accuracy.
