I'm curious if you'd even need the range finder by the time you have the kills to equip it.
I mean, I use it with the Burris scope. Why not go for that first shot kill with a little extra assurance? Check the range, zero my scope, bam. Done.
Range finder is pretty much pointless when you use med-ramge scopes, which is how you should really be sniping anyway.
The exception being significant long range shooting beyond 500m where the glint isn't so much of an issue.
Why do you say that? I just started using the 8x scope and it was really quite fun an effective.
Long range scopes have the glint. Unless you're looking to go for the extreme long range sniping battles then all it does is show everyone exactly where you are.
Most of the sniping I do I tend to go for around 200 - 500m shots using murderholes and tight angles where people won't expect. A big beacon showing everyone where I am isn't going to get me far and asking for a counter sniper to ruin my plan.
That's a good point, thanks! I will try out the 4x scopes. I usually only use them with the semi automatic rifles.
That said, however. That hasn't stopped me getting totally out played by snipers with long-range scopes equipped.
Either because I didn't think they saw me, or even they were just way better.
Re-reading the comments I realised I came across quite preachy and I fundamentally think that people should be allowed to play the way they enjoy (except main campers, they can go in the bin). So do whatever you're good at or find enjoyable.
Personally, as an example, I like to only play the weapons of the team I'm playing, even if it means I do badly.
