    Sniper Rifle vs. Magnum .44

    Magnum .44:

    One Shot from great Distance no matter if in Head or not equals Death...

    M700,SVD, Z93:

    After 3 Shots directly into the Body the normal Dude still is alive and needs one or more shots to finally die... All Shots are White hits while with the Magnum .44 the first Shot is red and deadly not matter how far away i am...

    Conclusion:

    The Magnum .44 is the better Sniper Rifle ehh Pistol as any other real Sniper Rifles in the Game... Not logically but its the way it is... lol

    I've never had someone be alive after 3 shots with the M700 or Z93... The worst I've ever had was putting 3 total shots into someone to kill them but that's usually with the heavy body armor or just bad aiming at their feet. 90% of the time with the Warrior's mod I'll get 1hks, exception being when I don't hit them in the torso or head.

    The m700 is either overpowered or has incredible accuracy. I've never used it, however ive been killed many, many times by what seems like 1 hip shot from a guy popping out of cover..it is frustrating as hell

    So a slow to aim bolt action gun shouldnt kill you in 1 shot? i seemingly get one shot'ed by everything most of the time anyways lol, well actually i die before they even fire. For the ranked maps its not op, latency is op though.

    Magnum almost always takes at least 2 shots for me even within about 10 feet unless a headshot

    Well, i OneShotKill everything at Distance with a Magnum .44 but with the M700, SVD or Z93 even if i have a Zoom there i get White Hits and need at least 2 Shots and mostly 3 to kill them at Distance, its absurd because with the Magnum without Sight i kill them at very great Distance with One Shot only.

    The Big Guys takes 2-3 Shots into the Head with the M700, SVD or Z93 and they are dead, with the Magnum .44 i need much more, so something is strange with the Distance i think, i prefer the Magnum .44 with long canon to kill them at Distance instead of any Sniper Rifle because of this strange behaviour.

    Normally if i compare the Stats the Sniper Rifles should kill OneShot too at Distance for sure, but it seems that the Stats are bogus...

    Z93 (not to mention AMR) reliably kills even heavies with a single head shot.

    If you need more hits, you're doing something wrong; it's as simple as that.

    Also there are big differences between the M700, SVD and Z93, regarding range and damage, so talking about
    "the M700, SVD or Z93" in general doesn't make much sense.
