CYCLONE Rifle Overview
CYCLONE Rifles
The CYCLONE rifle is a premium product suitable for law enforcement and military
applications. The design is also suitable for the civilian target and sports use. Steel
Core Designs’s rifles are designed and made in England, using the latest technology.
Our rifles are precision built to fine tolerances with high grade materials. Our quality
control meets the highest recognised standards.
Steel Core Designs (SCD) has proven itself to rank amongst the world’s most accurate
rifles. It is by design and not by chance that CYCLONE rifles have proved to be
reliable, ergonomically pleasing and durable. These rifles are designed and built to
meet and exceed the most stringent safety standards.
• Our receivers use a rugged, high tensile steel 4-lug
bolt, incorporating an innovative firing pin system. The
short firing pin travel enables a very fast lock time
(firing pin release to primer impact) of around
1.5 milliseconds. This improves rifle control during
the firing cycle.
• The SCD designed bipod is fully height adjustable and
fits directly to the forend. The bipod features a swivel
action which rotates around the centreline of the bore.
This feature minimises shot deviation due to torque
reaction. The bipod features a quick release
mechanism and needs no tools for removal or fitting.
• Management of the recoil energy from the CYCLONE is
achieved by the ergonomic stock design which follows
the natural path of the recoil to the shoulder. Rifle
control during the shot is maximised and assists the
user in spotting fall of shot and new target acquisition.
• The CYCLONE stock features a folding butt as standard
for easy bore sighting, cleaning, maintenance and
transit. The butt is adjustable for length with spacers
(there is the option of integrated length adjustment)
and incorporates a quick deployment mono pod, fully
adjustable with thumbwheel fine adjustment.
• Heavy recoil plate system located into both the action
body and rifle stock. This feature reduces flexing of the
stock structure, assists in rifle accuracy, and enhances
recoil management.
• Low friction and wear resistant VDP coatings reduce
the need for lubrication. The weapons are ideally
suited for the extremes of heat, cold, damp and dry
dusty conditions found in current operational
environments.
• The rifle safety lever is incorporated in the trigger
mechanism for ease of use.
The LSR CYCLONE
Short barrel (SB) – engagement range to 600 metres.
Long barrel (LB) – engagement range to 1,000 metres.
The MSR CYCLONE
Short barrel (SB) – engagement range to 1,250 metres.
Long barrel (LB) – engagement range to 1,800 metres.
NB: The above is dependent upon ammunition, type of
target, atmospheric conditions and of course shooter’s skill.
All SCD rifle systems are designed to accept commercially
available day scopes, night vision, LADS and thermal
imaging sights.
• A high quality trigger is vital to enable shooter and rifle
to perform together. All SCD triggers have a 2 stage
operation, first and second pull, factory set to 1.5 kg
pull weight. The release is both crisp and predictable,
and maintenance requirement is minimal. The complete
trigger unit can be readily removed for cleaning.
• Our highly efficient muzzle brake is a standard fitment
to all of our tactical rifles and greatly reduces recoil
and increases control of rifle movement during the
firing process.
• The CYCLONE stock is ambidextrous and ergonomically
designed for maximum comfort and performance. The
innovative design and choice of materials have been
proven to perform in extremes of temperature and
operational environments.
• Standard colours are Black and Dark Earth; most
RAL colours can be accommodated, though charges
may apply.
• The Picatinny scope rail is available with a parallel
or angled option to suit the weapon and/or customer
requirements. All CYCLONE rifles are equipped
with a 600 mm long Picatinny top rail to accommodate
additional thermal and night vision equipment. Side
and lower Picatinny rails are supplied for additional
accessories.
• SCD barrels are produced to a very high quality match
grade specification, fluted for improved heat
dissipation and rifle balance. Tactical rifle barrels are
Teflon coated and are threaded for fitting muzzle brake
and/or suppressor.
