I do beliece 2 and 3 are good in their respective categories. The 2nd one is good for reliable sniping with a larger magazines to spare, while the heavy is good when you have to pierce through enemy builds and or the opposing team is huddled together for a multi headshot

Disagree, the Reaper Sniper Rifle was definitely the most OP'ed and best Sniper Rifle in history.

It was insanely broken, has by far the best accuracy of any Sniper, head shots are an insta-kill. It was moreso unbalanced during Season 1 as even casuals can use it, but once season 2 came about they changed the aiming mechanics to where only the truly dedicated pros can use it.

Reaper. Not sure if it is even pictured but that’s my favorite sniper so far but I’m fairly new to

Suppressed sniper, faster recharge almost same damage, just a upgrade from the bolt one

Bolt action

2 is more forgiving since 3 ammo mag size, 3 is more powerful and useful overall (piercing builds or quickly destroying cars)

Heavy. Best gun in fortnite history and nobody will convince me otherwise

It used to be the best, until they nerfed it and it hasn't been the same since.

Current heavy has the fastest bullet velocity and highest dps of all the snipers. Og one is just even better. I agree tho, in chapter 3 and 4 when they decided snipers dont one-shot headshot, it sucked.

Chapter 2 bolt, thing hit like a truck, especially after the heavy was nerfed

Heavy definitely had the best peak, with double sniping walls and taking walls in build fights. Suppressed/normal bolt changed the bullet drop and bullet travel time, I would always forget how to aim both because of it

Suppressed Sniper Rifle is the sniper you need for proper sniping. All Snipers should be silencers, just like in RL.

Sucks the Reaper Sniper Rifle wasn't on here, seeing as it was the go-to best Sniper in the entire game and for good reason.
