A Snipers Guide To MW2

[-Andre-]

This will be short and to the point. All the true statistics of all snipers and some advice on each will be given.

Key
OHK: One Shot Kill
1.5x: Multiplier, will OHK without SP, or with SP and Silencer here.
1.1x: Multiplier, will OHK here with SP and no silencer.
1.0x: Multiplier, will not OHK.
RPM: Rounds per minute

Notes:
-All snipers do 70 damage, silencers lower this to 50 at all ranges. There is no change in sway
-Damage multipliers will be listed as follows: Head, Neck, Chest, Body, Limbs
-Silencers without Stopping Power take away any chance of an OHK.
-Ghillie suits for Urban, Desert, and Arctic can be achieved by getting multiple OHK's.


Intervention M200 (bolt-action)
Damage Multipliers: 1.5, 1.5, 1.5, 1.1, 1.0
RPM: 67 RPM
Penetration: High
Ammo Cap: 5+15
Recoil: Medium, scope moves while cycling the bolt
Stopping Power is recommended, OHK's are important. Inferior to the Barrett, but its bolt-action, and, therefore, awesome.

Barrett .50
Damage Multipliers: 1.5, 1.5, 1.5, 1.1, 1.0
RPM: 600RPM
Penetration: Very High
Ammo Cap: 10+20
Recoil: Very High
Stopping Power can be done without, but helpful. Statistically the best sniper.

Walther WA2000
Damage Multipliers: 1.5, 1.5, 1.5, 1.0, 10
RPM: 444RPM
Penetration: Medium
Ammo Cap: 6+18
Recoil: Low
Stopping Power is useless, unless using a silencer, it has no 1.1 multipliers.

M21 Enhanced Battle Rifle
Damage Multipliers: 1.5, 1.1, 1.1, 1.0, 1.0
RPM: 1200RPM
Penetration: Medium
Ammo Cap: 10+20
Recoil: Very Low
Stopping Power is recommended, unless you want to spam or only do headshots.

NOTE: I DID NOT WRITE THIS GUIDE. THIS IS NOT MINE AND IS SOMEONE ELSES! I HAVE JUST POSTED IT BECAUSE IT IS USEFUL!

Could I ask what order are your multipliers in please?
So is it : 1.5 Head, 1.5 Body...etc?
If so, could you post what multiplier applies to each part of the body please

Other than that, great guide. Thank you for this.

Yup, its from top to bottom.

Yup, its from top to bottom.

It may be top to bottom, but it makes no sense still because I don't know what goes where

If I'm going top to bottom, I'd say head, body legs. There is 5 multipliers you have posted, so what goes where please?
I'd love to have this information

Do we really need these? The game has been out for 9 months now, and many guides have been written already.

I just wanted to help.

good in general but you are wrong in 1 part.

All snipers have the same sway, except for the intervention which has more sway than all the other snipers.
