A "sniper Rifle" in THIS game is a specialized sniper rifle. It really is not the least bit important what the name of it is or whether it's bolt action of semi-automatic. As has been noted the SVD was introduced to give squads a longer reach. The "Snipers" now all have "Sniper rifles" and you can think of that by whatever name you like. The SVD is now set up to be used by some infantry units. If you want to think of some of the "Sniper rifles" as being SVD's that's OK
