Beware of Fire Rate:
There is no denying to the fact that the bolt action sniper has the highest damage but the gun has a very low fire rate and you will have to wait for a while before you can make another shot. So it is best to take your time and then fire the shot. It is recommended that you wait for the player to stop moving so that you can fire with much more accuracy. Also, if you miss the shot, hide quickly so that the player that you were aiming for does not see you or else your position will be compromised and you will be at a risk of getting into a fight.

Highest Damage:
The best thing about the Bolt Action sniper rifle is that it has a very high damage. Even the rare version of the rifle can take out the opponent in one hit if he does not have a shield. This is because the rare version of the bolt action has a damage of 105 if you hit the body and 262 damage if you get a headshot. So if you want a gun that has a very high damage then go for the bolt action sniper rifle, it will give you a few kills for sure.

Don’t Overthink the Shots:
While it is recommended to wait for the player you are aiming for to stop, you should not overthink your shots as well. This means that you should not take forever to fire the shot and question your ranges. Just line up the shot and then take it. Besides, if the players stop and then again start to walk or run then you will again have to wait for him to stop so it is better to take the shot as soon as you have a clear aim and not to overthink it.

Master the Bullet Drop:
As mentioned above, the bolt action sniper has a poor fire rate so you should not miss your shot. And the biggest factor in the mission the shot is the bullet drop. Because even if you have taken the right shot, the bullet drop can make you miss your shot. If you don’t know, bullet drop makes your bullet go down on its way to your target. So try to aim a bit higher. Do this with every shot, and soon you will be able to understand the mechanism of bullet drop with bolt action sniper rifle.
