the bolt action sniper rifle is South Africa's Truvelo. Not sure which caliber, looks like a 308 or 300wm. could be 338LM as well. never actually watched the film, only saw a snap shot of the gun scene. someone edit this for me please, new to this stuff.

more info can be found here. looks like these people didn't even bother naming their rifles.
