How often do sniper rifles spawn for you?

[Ninjadactyl 3]

I've only ever seen one sniper rifle in my time on DayZ, and that was a CZ550, which I lost due to an incident involving a hatchet and a massive lag spike. I've done several loot run of the NW Airfield, Stary Barracks, and Deer Stands/Fire Stations in between and never even seen one military grade sniper. I've had coyote backpacks, 2 bear traps, Silenced M4's and sniper mags til kingdom come, but never an actual rifle.

Try to find helicrash sites, I find the m107 at them often. I rarely find snipers anywhere else.

Playing since 2 weeks now, after 3 days I found a DMR in Deer Stand near Staroye which I lost today to another sniper covering my buddies trying to loot Stary Military Tents.

Respawned in Cherno, came into the Firestation and found an M14 in the tower :D which I gave to a buddy after we looted NWF and I switched to an M4A3 COO. So I´m pretty blessed so far by the loot gods it seems.

Yesterday I found 4 AS50's from 2 helicopter crash sites with 100 meter proximity of each other. Instead of an AS50, I took FN FAL.
