Tips for: 50. Cal easy headshots

So i was asked to post a few tips so here goes nothing...

The best way to score some easy headshots with your 50. cal is to do two things. The first option is to take your time! Don't rush it! if the enemy is out in the open like in Wasteland, then line up the shot before you fire. I've seen many snipers rush the process and get killed because of it. The second option would be to do what i call "target practice". Get in a good spot, well hidden from the enemy, usually found in the back of maps, and take out whoever comes by. Now this only works for a short time before the other team starts to get smart. So the rule i have made up is take 5 shots from each location then move on. If your good that could mean at least 3 kills per position. When switching positions, try not to make your self too obvious either. By this i mean don't head directly to the spot in which you want to snipe at. Take your time in getting there. I usually circle around the outside of the given position and make it appear as if i wasn't going to head there. After 2 or 3 circles head to the spot then begin yourkilling spree again.

The main problem the 50. cal has is that it simply has too much recoil. So to tame this, don't try to use it like a Famas! Do slow, but steady, single shots. One after another. if you don't kill your target by two shots, give up and seek other prey. When using the acog scope especially! There is a trick to using the acog and firing off multiple shots from your 50. Cal though. I call this little trick the "double tap". Aim at the opponents stomach or knees the quickly fire off two shots while aiming up at the same time. You can usually get a headshot or at least a kill off of this technique (unless the opponent try's to drop shot you). If you think you can handle the "double tap" as i call it, go ahead. So those are my tips for Barret 50.cal sniping. If you liked this post let me know via xbox live. I may do another on Light Machine Guns soon.
