Accuracy International Limited is a British firearms manufacturer based in Portsmouth, England. The company specializes in sniper rifles and anti-materiel rifles.

The company was founded in 1978 by a group of individuals including British Olympic shooting gold medalist Malcolm Cooper, Sarah Cooper, and Martin Kay, along with the firearms designers Dave Walls and David Caig.

Accuracy International's sniper rifles have found utility in a multitude of military units and police departments across the globe.[2]

Following a period of financial hardship, Accuracy International faced liquidation in 2005.[3] Nevertheless, a British consortium, helmed by the initial design duo of Dave Walls and David Caig, intervened to ensure the company's continuity.
