Sniper Rifles

Data
Long range rifles.


Sniper Rifles (SR) are a type of weapon in BATTLEGROUNDS.

Summary

Sniper Rifles are the ultimate weapons when it comes to range and power. In general, these rifles suffer from low magazine sizes and a cripplingly low rate of fire, but are redeemed by their high damage and extreme range capabilities. Due to the small magazine sizes and slow rate of fire, one must use these rifles with extreme caution, as one shot missed could spell the end for the user, and multiple shots missed means a long time of being vulnerable while reloading or switching weapons.

Data

Note: Since Bluehole doesn't release the official weapon values of guns, no website has 100% accurate statistics for weapons. Each website relies on hundreds of spreadsheets and each website has different numbers. Most websites recorded their data via private matches and some don't include the feet/range. No one knows if the tests were consistent when recording the data. In short, no one has the exact numbers, but this data is close to the real values.
