Wilson Combat Super Sniper
Wilson Combat · Sniper Rifle · In Production · 2014
Also known as: WC Super Sniper, Wilson Super Sniper
Overview
The Wilson Combat Super Sniper is a precision semi-automatic AR-platform rifle built for unmatched accuracy at long range. Its heart is a heavy-weight, fluted, stainless steel premium match-grade barrel optimized for stabilizing the longer, heavier match bullets favored for distance shooting. Paired with a crisp two-stage Tactical Trigger Unit tuned to roughly four pounds, an adjustable gas block, a free-floating M-LOK handguard, and Wilson Combat's Armor-Tuff finish, the Super Sniper is offered across a deliberately accuracy-focused range of chamberings - .223 Wylde, .224 Valkyrie, 6.5mm Creedmoor, 6.5mm Grendel, and .308 Winchester. Each rifle is hand-built and individually accuracy-tested, delivering true precision-rifle performance in a semi-automatic package.

Available in AR-15 (.223 Wylde, .224 Valkyrie, 6.5 Grendel) and AR-10 (6.5 Creedmoor, .308) configurations; barrel lengths vary by caliber (typically 18-20 inches). The Urban Super Sniper is a configuration variant. Trigger is Wilson Combat's two-stage TTU set near 4 lb.
Background
The Super Sniper name has become shorthand among precision AR shooters for Wilson Combat's accuracy-first philosophy - heavy match barrels, two-stage triggers, and chamberings chosen for ballistic performance rather than mass-market appeal.
