how many hits is it gonna take to kill someone 800m away with snipe rifles?

[shreddedrocks 42]

Hits on players btw.

AS50

DMR

m107

cz550

???

I know DMR takes two hits, that's my experience with it anyways. I havn't been able to make 800m shots with the other guns.

with AS50 and M107 is should one one shot anywhere on the body. The DMR it takes up to 2-5 shots (my experience), and cz I think its about the same with the DMR

This is a comparison of all the sniper rifles in DayZ.

AS50 NATO rounds are 1 shot anywhere

m107 rounds are 1 shot anywhere except for lower legs / feet

every other gun is around 1 shot to make them bleed then another 10 shots to make them abort while in combat

Also, most likely the reason why you don't hit other players at 800m is because its probably laggy. Its very hard because of this, but another tip, on the weapons you listed except the DMR, you can sight it in with the page up and page down depending on how far they are in meters, and all you have to do is shoot in the middle of the crosshairs

I do not know about that...

Shot a guy sprinting from my left to right 930 meters away.

Took one shot and was counting on missing this shot and so i did, added the distance to were i had to shoot to hit.

This time i got him in the leg, but during the time it took for my 3rd bullet to leave my mussel and get to him he managed to ALT+F4...

I did however get a kill from that leg shot :P

EDIT: Was using M107 rounds for my AS50

my friend was a female and coudlnt wear a ghillie

so i shot him from 600m out with my AS50 / m107 rounds and it only put him into shock

m107 rounds do 37k damage, while AS50 nato rounds do 140k damage. dunno what they mean, but m107 isnt a 100% guaranteed 1 hit somehow

The guy i shot might have been low on blood then :P

Also i did not expect to hit this guy, it was very long range suppressive fire since he had the other over watch cornered :P
