The rifle has perfect accuracy, no damage ramp-up or fall-off, and is one of eight weapons with a zoom sight, the others being the [[Sydney Sleeper]], [[Machina]], [[Bazaar Bargain]], [[Hitman's Heatmaker]], [[AWPer Hand]], [[Shooting Star]], and [[Classic]]. The zoom display features a charge meter and a small, faded team-colored laser dot in the center. When zoomed in, the charge meter increases gradually from 0% to 100% during 3.3 seconds, indicating the amount of damage that will be done by the shot. The dot becomes clearer as the shot charges. The charge meter resets to 0% after a shot is fired or when the scope is unzoomed. Players are therefore required to continually zoom in on an opponent if they wish to deal the full amount of damage against an enemy. Firing the Sniper Rifle when out of zoom will deal minor damage. Unlike other [[hitscan]] weapons, the Sniper Rifle and the Sniper's [[Sniper#Primary|other primaries]] are able to penetrate friendly players.
+
The rifle has no spread, no damage ramp-up or fall-off, and has a zoom sight like all of Sniper's other [[Sniper#Primary|primaries]] (with the exception of the [[Huntsman]] and the [[Fortified Compound]]). The zoom display features a charge meter and a small, faded team-colored laser dot in the center. When zoomed in (scoped), the charge meter increases gradually from 0% to 100% over the course of 3.3 seconds; a higher charge percentage increases the damage done by a shot. The charge meter resets to 0% after a shot is fired or when exiting the scope without shooting. Firing the Sniper Rifle while unzoomed deals the same damage as a scoped [[headshot|bodyshot]] at 0% charge. When zoomed, the Sniper's movement [[Classes#Speed|speed]] is reduced to 27% and slows even further to 1.33% when crouching. Furthermore, zooming cannot be performed when the Sniper is jumping or falling after jumping; however, falling off a ledge without jumping or getting knocked into the air does not inhibit scoping.

Furthermore, zooming cannot be performed when the Sniper is jumping or falling after jumping, however, falling off a ledge without jumping or getting knocked into the air will not inhibit scoping. The Sniper Rifle does not deliver random [[Critical hits|crits]]; however, if the player delivers a shot to an enemy's head while zoomed in, a [[headshot]] will occur which will deliver a guaranteed critical hit. Note that headshots cannot be scored if the Sniper fires while unscoped.

Whilst scoped, the Sniper Rifle projects a team-colored dot on walls or floors, serving as the laser sight for the Sniper. This can serve as a warning to other players of the Sniper's position. Resourceful Sniper players can circumvent this problem by deliberately aiming at objects or other surfaces in the foreground.

While scoped, the Sniper Rifle projects a team-colored dot on walls or floors, serving as the laser sight for the Sniper. The dot becomes larger and clearer as the charge meter increases. As it is visible to enemy players, the dot can reveal the Sniper's position, making him easier to target and avoid. Resourceful Snipers can circumvent this problem by deliberately aiming at objects or other surfaces in the foreground to hide the laser from enemies.

— The Sniper
 ”

The Sniper Rifle is the default primary weapon for the Sniper. It is a single-shot, bolt-action rifle with a wooden stock and a massive telescopic scope, with a laser sight attached underneath.

The rifle has no spread, no damage ramp-up or fall-off, and has a zoom sight like all of Sniper's other primaries (with the exception of the Huntsman and the Fortified Compound). The zoom display features a charge meter and a small, faded team-colored laser dot in the center. When zoomed in (scoped), the charge meter increases gradually from 0% to 100% over the course of 3.3 seconds; a higher charge percentage increases the damage done by a shot. The charge meter resets to 0% after a shot is fired or when exiting the scope without shooting. Firing the Sniper Rifle while unzoomed deals the same damage as a scoped bodyshot at 0% charge. When zoomed, the Sniper's movement speed is reduced to 27% and slows even further to 1.33% when crouching. Furthermore, zooming cannot be performed when the Sniper is jumping or falling after jumping; however, falling off a ledge without jumping or getting knocked into the air does not inhibit scoping.

The Sniper Rifle does not deliver random Critical hits; however, if the player hits a headshot, a shot to an enemy's head while zoomed in, it is a guaranteed Critical hit. Headshots cannot be hit while unscoped. Unlike other hitscan weapons, the Sniper Rifle and the Sniper's other primaries are able to penetrate friendly players.

While scoped, the Sniper Rifle projects a team-colored dot on walls or floors, serving as the laser sight for the Sniper. The dot becomes larger and clearer as the charge meter increases. As it is visible to enemy players, the dot can reveal the Sniper's position, making him easier to target and avoid. Resourceful Snipers can circumvent this problem by deliberately aiming at objects or other surfaces in the foreground to hide the laser from enemies.
