From his gameplay, we can take away that the major strength of this sniper is its damage. It is a guaranteed kill if you hit your opponent above the chest. Thus, unless you are aiming for your opponent’s legs, you will not get any hit-markers.
Despite its hard-hitting nature, this sniper is held back by its slow reload and aim-down-sight time. After one shot, it takes about two to three seconds before you can shoot again. As a result, you will be vulnerable to opponents during this time.
This gun will be best utilized on bigger maps and in slower game modes, like Search and Destroy. I would mainly stick to this gun if I wanted to locate opponents and play a stealthy sniping role. However, if your aim is to get some clips and quad-feeds, you should steer clear of this one.
