Have had the as50 for awhile now, first thing I would never give this up. The as50 is amazing for scouting and killing with the huge zoom and the 1shot kills against the ever increasing number of d/c'rs is great. range wise I always snipe from atleast 650 or more metres away so my shots are not audible to nearby zeds, I do play with a crew of 2-3 others every few days but the majority of the time I'm alone, I'll assume you understand how sight in the as50 so no need to cover that. As for playing alone with a 50.cal patience is key, just because you have a shot does not mean you should take it, basic things like checking tree lines and other vantage points surrounding you for other players/ your targets crew if you see someone enter a field, wait till they get approx halfway before taking the shot to ensure no crew is following up behind him/another player is camping the same area. carrying an alternate main such as one of the ak/m4/16 lines or a sd weapon to switch out helps immensly even at the reduced bag space(an alice or c-backpack is key). be sparse with your ammo m107 and ofc as50 rounds are not the easyest of mags to find as you know. Also when solo I try to stay in the north area of the map camping stary from afar or crashed helis I find with the increasing number of crews in dayz now the nw airfield is not safe for a solo anymore. Peace, stay unfriendly.
