Hmmm, well for starters, claymores can save your life. Plant some near doorways and ladders to save yourself from people coming to your camping spot. Leading can be helpful too against people that are running. Aim your crosshairs ahead of your enemy, then shoot just before they come in contact with the center of your scope. Very helpful

If you have trouble aiming, use the M40 Sniper Rifle and hold your breath when you shoot. Also, you can shoot through walls with the deep impact perk. If an enemy is behind a wall, no problems. Just fire a round or two and problem solved.

Stopping power is awesome if you want 1-hit kills (Not including M21 and Dragunov).

Also, remember not to just stand in the open. You'll get picked off. Crouch in the grass, or camp in an area with lots of cover to avoid being spotted and to be a harder target.

Well, that's all. Hope I helped.

No prob

. You should experiment with all sniper rifles and see which one is the best for you.

Dont ever get attached to one rifle or hate the other. No matter what everygun has a fan. I used to hate the dragunov. I thought to myself why use it. Now i almost have red tiger. And just got a 18kill streak at bog 10min ago with it. You can almost double your kills when siping if you can learn to kill people while their sprinting. Ive become so good at it that its almost 70%-80% with me. The best rifle for any new person is the m40. I would have to say its the best sniper. But the situations i like to get into. Overkill and other areas. The Draggy works better for me. But if i camp its the m40 all the way. Because a deagle is prolly better for buildings anyway.

rule number 1...
be stealthy... that means if u see grass and u want to get to that building over there...
sprint to the grass hit the deck...
sprint again find some cover repeat and check the area...
if this doesnt work stay hot...
a term i like to use wen ur on ur back routes and still aiming at the combat area so u can see someone if they comin to kill you...
also
if u wanna use stealth for breaching buildings to GET to ur sniping point use stun grenades...
they do some damage and ur opponent cant move or see you Cheesy

u might wanna watch ur corners because there might be another sniper in there...
and all good snipers use claymores to save their butts. BTW if ur in a clan or if u got a freind...
u can easily say "hey watch my back while i snipe" plant your claymores to help him out too
if hes got claymores ALSO u can do double the security...
well thats all i got hope it helped Tongue

Just like those vid on sniping, there are mobile snipers and campers. Usually I'm a camper, but I have my mobile sniper rifle on my Assualt class.

Is it a good idea if you get a friend with an automatic weapon so he can be a spotter?

depends if u trust him or not...
and also depends on his equipment
if he has silencer (hes smart)
if he has claymores(hes very smart)
if he has Dead silence or steady aim (also smart)
but anything that u think ur freind should have to help u snipe should be equiped

All bolt action sniper rifles are good with stopping power, since it allows them to get 1-hit kills.

unless its S&D you shouldnt worry about sneaking to your spot. If its close enough to the enemy that you have top sneak there its prolly to dangerous. Unless your like acoging or somin. I normlaly just find a spot plant a claymore then start sniping. after about 5min i leave. Or 5-7kills. The best snipers dont camp unless its the beginning. They move with the action. Ill use ambush as a diminstration. at the begining jsut go up the first building and get some quick kills. Normally the action moves after that. If it goes to the east. Line up in one of the western buildings and snipe away. If it gets pushed back to either respawn point. Go to the far middle building and do some super long range sniping. Just move with the action. But stay far away. I should say camp with the action.
