As far as Im aware of, there are no snipers that 1 hit anyone other than the ones you can find on the ground. ---

That’s why it’s best to do all sniping on a hardcore server. Mostly 1 shot kills and no minimap giving your spot away. ---

Earn an SRR-61. I’ve got all but one rifle and I always go back to it when I’m done with the .338 I use for short range. I pick still people off from 600-1100m with headshots all day. Have made slightly farther ~1300. Moving targets aren’t hard to hit 100-500m but unless you’re a little lucky you’re not hitting heard you’re aiming for center mass on those as its bigger. SRR-61 Ballistic scope 40x Variable zoom 12x Straight pull bolt Use PLD as rangefinder. ---

I just want to have the best shot at it - would hate me using the worst gun and picking based on stats purely ---

While I like the SRR it’s not the single best rifle. Especially if you play shoot and move/counter snipe. Personally the M40 is my go to. Same damage model as the SRR might not have the range but if you play objectives and shot and move then that’s not what matters. ---

I’m not the guy that sits on the edge of the mountain on the edge of the map and gets 3 kills a round. I do like to find a spot where I can overwatch a couple captured points and pick off enemies coming to take over from a long ways out. I only take headshots and SRR shooting flatter helps me with that. Plus I’ve probably got 1000 more kills with it than any of the other rifles I’ve used and I know it with the 40x variable zoom combo better than anything. ---

I understand that completely I’m about the same comfort wise with the M40 with a 6x. Though the L96 also finds its way back to use on occasion.
