When to use Sniper Rifles
Sniper rifles hit harder than anything else you can carry, at the cost of fire rate. Most are bolt-action, so every miss costs you time, and they take the highest-magnification optics in the game.
The AMR 50's .50 caliber round hits hardest per chest hit, ahead of the MK22 (.308); the SV98 and the Mosin-Nagant share the same 7.62x54R damage. The AMR 50 is also made for hurting vehicles as well as infantry.
Bring a sniper when you can hold an elevated position overlooking an objective. Spot for your squad with the recon tools, and keep a sidearm ready for anyone who gets close.
