SNIPER RIFLE GUIDE!!!🕹🤑

PUBG: The best Sniper

 When it comes to dropping enemies at a distance, there’s simply no better tool for getting the job done than a Sniper Rifle. The ability to zoom in with a powerful scope and rattle off bullets isn’t exclusive to this class of weapon - Assault Rifles and DMRs are capable of this as well - but snipers set themselves apart from the competition with their unrivalled accuracy and ultra-powerful single shots. All in all they're a must-have weapon when it comes to challenging targets at range in PUBG.

In your average game of PUBG you're unlikely to stumble across many Sniper Rifles while rooting through buildings or looting players. They're pretty rare weapon all-round, and are usually found in hotly contested areas, populated cities and most commonly - Supply Drops. It's definitely worth fighting and looting your way through these locations and chasing down Supply Drops for a chance at getting hold of one though, as a Sniper can significantly increase your chances of outlasting the competition.

Snipers do suffer from low magazine sizes and low rates of fire though, so you have to wield them with extreme caution. Missing a single shot can spell disaster if the enemy spots you, but land them just right and you'll drop targets in no time at all.

Below we’ve listed all the main Sniper Rifles in the game from best to worst, with strengths and weaknesses outlined for each gun.

Editor’s Note: It’s worth noting that this is by no means a definitive list. Almost all of these Sniper Rifles can have a significant impact in certain situations, and we understand that you’ve got to work with what you’re given in each match! it comes to dropping enemies at a distance, there’s simply no better tool for getting the job done than a Sniper Rifle.

The Best Sniper Rifles in PUBG: #3 Kar98K

Currently the only bolt-action Sniper Rifle available as a common drop, the Karabiner 98 Kurz is an excellent long distance damage dealer. Tagging enemies with body shots will hit their health bars hard, while a well placed shot to the head will usually mean insta-death.

It’s main drawback is the time it takes to reload a round between every shot, and the lengthy reload time for an entire magazine. This means you’ll have to maintain pinpoint accuracy for an extended period of time as targets flee once they’ve been shot - this isn’t easy.

On top of this, it’s also extremely loud. One shot without a Suppressor will give away your position to everyone nearby.

The Best Sniper Rifles in PUBG: #2 M24

Another Sniper Rifle that’s exclusive to Crates, think of the M24 as an upgraded Kar98K. It’s got higher damage, bullet velocity and reload times between each round which makes it much easier to use than its vintage counterpart.

Just be wary that if you're used to using the Kar98K, the M24's higher bullet velocity means that you don't need to aim as high when firing at targets in the distance.

The Best Sniper Rifles in PUBG: #1 AWM

Without a doubt the most powerful weapon in the game, the AWM devastates anyone unfortunate enough to be on the receiving end of one of its enormous .300 bullets. This Sniper Rifle feels weighty, and every shot thunders out of the barrel at such a blistering pace that there’s hardly any bullet drop, even at extreme distances - it’s like a laser beam.

Top of the range helmets don’t stand a chance here. Get clunked in the cranium by an AWM and you’ll be dropping dead to the floor no matter how snazzy your armour is.

The AWM’s main weakness is its bolt-action, which can make it a pretty unforgiving weapon if you do miss your first few shots. Additionally, it only accepts .300 ammunition that’s found exclusively in Crates.
