In depth CoD4 Sniper Rifle stats.

BOOM HEADSHOT! These guns are, obviously, for those who prefer very long-distance kills. The guns are not necessarily more accurate or powerful than some of the assault rifles, but they maintain accuracy over much longer ranges and all come with telescopic sights, allowing you to line up shots from much safer positions. Several of the rifles offered in CoD4 are semi-automatic and all have an unlockable ACOG scope, making them potentially useful as high-powered substitutes for the G3 and M14 assault rifles.

M40A3


Modified from the Remington 700 hunting rifle and used by the U.S. Marine Corps. Bolt-action. The Marines took the R700 and gave it lower recoil, a larger clip, and improved accuracy at the cost of bullet damage. That's the tradeoff you have to consider when choosing between this gun and the R700. Because it's bolt-action, choosing this gun restricts you to long-range sniping unless you enjoy using a pistol or using a second main weapon with Overkill. Be patient, line up your shot and hold your breath before firing, and remember to change positions after each couple of shots if possible to avoid being located. Notes: -The M40A3 is unlocked at Rank 3 Private along with Sniper preset class) -*Because the bolt action rifles accept individual rounds, you can press fire while reloading to halt the reloading process and chamber whichever round you loaded last, in case you need to attack while reloading.


Stats:

  • Weapon: M40A3
  • Accuracy: 9+ / 12
  • Damage: 9+ / 12
  • Range: 12 / 12
  • Fire Rate: 2+ / 12

  • Clip Size/Reserve Ammo: 5/15
  • Recoil: moderate/high random
  • Reload Time: 1.1 First Round / 0.4 Next Round
  • Good Perks/Attachments: Iron Lungs, Stopping Power, UAV Jammer, Bandolier, Claymore x2
Damage: 70
Range: 3000+
Rate of Fire: 70 RPM Bolt
Penetration: Large / Large Bullet
Location Damage Multiplier: Head (1.5) / Neck: (1.5) / Torso: (1.1) / Stomach: (1.1) / Limbs (1.0)
Hip Accuracy: Stand (10-15) / Crouch (9.5-14) / Prone (9-13)

M21


U.S. Army sniper rifle in active service since the Vietnam Era. The Army has switched its standard sniper rifle to the R700-based M24, but they also still use M21s and I guess the makers of CoD4 didn't want a third R700-based rifle in the lineup. The M21 is adapted from the M14, so it basically functions as the M14 was supposed to anyway. The recoil goes from excessive for a battle rifle (M14) to acceptable for a semi-automatic sniper (M21). With the lowest recoil of any sniper rifle, this is the one most likely to be modified with an ACOG and taken to a closer range. Feel free to take several rapid shots at your enemy to take them down instead of the painstaking one shot, one kill method required by the bolt-action rifles. You may wish not to hold your breath when taking several shots in a row, since the recoil is actually increased by taking a breath-held shot. (Note: The M21 is unlocked at Rank 7 Corporal)

  • Weapon: M21
