Sniper Rifles
The first thing to know about sniper rifles is that they don’t do any more damage than any other rifle of the same caliber. The US M24 sniper rifle fires the same 7.62 NATO round as the M-60 machinegun, and M-14 battle rifle. Sort of. There are small changes with the shape of the bullet, but there is no significant difference in the velocity or energy.
So, why are Sniper Rifles so special?
