Voere LBW refers to a series of bolt action rifles of hunting rifles and later also precision rifles , which was developed by Alfons Ruhland and is produced in large numbers and numerous caliber variants by Voere Präzisionstechnik in Kufstein.

The locking system of this weapon with barrel and caliber change is a repeater with an opening angle of only 60 ° and a flat bolt handle. The specially developed safety tension lock based on the ballpoint pen principle makes the LBW a particularly safe weapon in terms of handling and the risk of accidents.

The LBW-S (standard) and LBW-L (luxury) hunting rifles were presented for the first time at the IWA 2003 . In 2006 the LBW-D followed as a so-called Take Down model. The LBW-D enables the barrel to be exchanged using an Allen key and the caliber group to be changed by exchanging the bolt head without tools. In 2010 the model line, which had been purely for hunting , was supplemented by the LBW-M, a precision weapon . In 2011, the LBW-ST, a nozzle based on LBW-L, a LBW-V Varmint and a LBW-J Match, which meet the competition regulations for competitive hunting, were added.

The range of calibres extends from Mini (.222 Rem) through Medium and Magnum to Ultra Magnum (.338 LM).
