Sniper Rifle in "The International"

[crusader]

Could anyone tell what make of sniper rifle was used by the assassin(s) in the movie "The International"? It looked to me like possibly a Tikka Tactical.

I like how the "Sauer 200" appears to have only one scope ring. Whether it's one heavy duty scope ring or two standards put together it might as well be one scope ring.

In the movie, Clive Owen states, while checking the roof top where the second shooter was located "What if the second shooter was armed with a Sauer 200, just like his."

Definitely a Sauer 202 Takedown

...which is a hunting rifle. A friend of mine in Finland uses them in magnum and short action calibres for Dangerous and Large game in Africa and swears by them.

The Sauer tactical solution is this one:
