Best weapon for Scout
Russian 1895: The snipers among you appreciate high precision and a short reload time. The Russian 1895 has advantages at medium distances and with reload time. Because the rifle can be reloaded quickly, you can try to kill the opponent quickly after a “miss”. With the large scope, you have a good view of the battlefield and the enemies.
Gewehr 98: If the reload time doesn’t bother you and you prefer a bit more power, then use the Gewehr 98 for your matches as a scout. It is better suited for greater ranges than the 1895 and is still more accurate. If accuracy and range are the most important factors in your sniper rifles, then the Gewehr 98 is a good choice for you.
SMLE MK III Marksman: Unlocked early, the MK III is one of the most popular weapons among snipers. It has similar stats to the Gewehr 98, but has a larger magazine and is effective at shorter ranges. For snipers who do not want to utilize the full range of the battlefield, this weapon is a good alternative.
They Shall not Pass: In the France DLC, there is the Level Model 1886 for scouts. However, it is slower to reload than the Gewehr 98. Our choice in the direct comparison falls on the Gewehr 98.
