Upon taunting with the Huntsman equipped, the Sniper will remove the prepped arrow from his bow, spin it behind him, and then fiercely stab it forward before yanking it back, killing any enemy player slow, unaware, or simply unfortunate enough to be in the way.
The initial stab of the arrow itself will stun the victim and pulling the arrow free will inflict the killing blow. As the two are separate actions, it is possible to succeed with one but fail with the other depending on whether the enemy is within range. Because of this, two Snipers wielding the Huntsman can create an infinite stun loop without killing eachother.
The stun effect of the taunt works on both ÜberCharged enemies and enemies under the effects of Bonk! Atomic Punch, but will not kill them. Stunning the Medic in this fashion will break the ÜberCharge connection to his buddy.
As with all kill taunts, this taunt can be used to kill enemy players during humiliation and stalemates.

- While stunned, the Sniper can still stun and kill others with this taunt.
Trivia
- The kill icon shows the Sniper's right hand with his glove on. However, the Sniper only wears one glove on his left hand. This is further depicted incorrectly in the Shafted Achievement Icon, showing the Sniper using the taunt attack with his left hand, but without a glove.
