Perks

Perk 1

Claymores: Great for camping and making sure you are safe when you are sniping.

Bandolier: Great for kill streaks. If you find that you run out of ammo a lot use this.

Perk 2

Stopping Power: This is great for one shot kills. I would recommend this.

UAV Jammer: Great for staying hidden during a UAV but i would not recommend this because it is harder to get one shot kills especially against Juggernaut users.

Overkill: If you are getting constantly killed by people coming into your building this is your answer. I don't use this because i am quite good with my pistol.

Perk 3

Iron Lungs: This is great for sniper's for lining up headshots i would recommend this is you are having trouble lining up shots.

Deep Impact: Great if you find it easy to line up headshots but i find that the Barrett is good at shooting through walls.
