The SV-99 is a special purpose police sniper rifle for short-range (up to about 100 meters) encounters. It is intended for actions like the taking of the lights, the guarding dogs, or precision and silent anti-personnel work. The .22LR cartridge offers low noise, low probability of ricochets, and good lethality - of cause, when fired into the lethal area of the body. The SV-99 is based on the BI-7 biathlon sporting rifle, and has the same very fast toggle-locking, straight pull bolt action, in which the bolt handle simply swings back and forward to reload and cock the rifle. SV-99 features a wooden two part stock with detachable skeletonized shoulder stock, which could be removed fro compact storage or replaced by pistol grip for operation in confined places. The buttstock has an adjustable buttplate and a cheek rest; the bottom ob the buttstock has compartments for spare magazines. Forend features a rail with integral folding bipods. SV-99 has no open sights; instead, it has a dovetailed mounting points on the receiver, which can accept quick-detachable scope mounts. Muzzle is threaded for sound suppressor. 

With match grade ammunition SV-99 produces 1MOA 10-shot groups at 100 meters. SV-99 is now being manufactured at IZHMASH arms factory.
