The Tango 51 is a sniper rifle manufactured by Tactical Operations Incorporated. The rifle is based on a Remington Model 700 action and chambered for 7.62×51 mm NATO/.308 Winchester caliber.[citation needed] The rifle is extremely accurate, with an accuracy guarantee of 0.25 minute of arc (which gives 0.2617 inch spread at a distance of 100 yards, or 7.3 mm spread in a distance of 100 meters).[citation needed]

The Tango 51 was adopted by 400 SWAT and law enforcement agencies worldwide, include the Los Angeles County Sheriffs Special Enforcement Bureau (SEB).[citation needed]
