Vidhwansak is a manually operated, rotating bolt action rifle. The barrel along with the receiver recoil inside the chassis frame against a damping system. The rifle is fed from a detachable box magazine, that is inserted from the left side. The rifle can be quickly disassembled and carried in two man-portable packs, each weighting about 12 - 15 kg.
The rifle has an effective range of 1800 m (1300 m for the 20 mm version)[3], while shots can be achieved even up to 2000 m. The rifle is magazine fed, and reloaded through manual bolt action.
A muzzle brake is fitted on the end of the barrel which absorbs an estimated 50%-60% of recoil. This is further supplemented by a buffered slide in the receiver.
Vidhwansak is equipped with an 8X magnification, long eye relief telescopic sight with Parallax adjustment.
