#1 High Vantage Point

A high vantage point is an essential factor that helps players master the art of sniping. Spots like watchtowers, mountain tops and the roof of tall buildings offer players a higher line of sight over their opponents and allow them to make better use of the 8x scope to get a more precise aim.

#2 Bullet Drop

Accounting for the bullet drop and tracking your target is also an important factor to keep in mind when using a bolt-action sniper. Always aim a little higher than your target to ensure kills.

It must also be noted that a player must always be on the move while sniping to avoid becoming an easy target for an ambush.

#3 Heavy Sound

Snipers generally make a lot of noise so players must make sure that they use suppressors in their guns. This will allow them to be hidden even if they miss a shot or two.

If this is not followed, the noise will likely alert the enemies nearby and it will be easy for them to find your location on the map.
