Looks like the Cheytac M200. Got rangefinder binos too now smile

Can't see the stance indicator though. Doesn't seem to be anything in options to turn it on.

Turns out it is off the edge of the screen for me (a common problem apparently) so had to create a new profile! Works now.

I don't have knowledge or time, so if you make a sniper test mission or two, please share. wink

I like the additions but they need to get the wind and the ability to deploy bipods into the game to make a true sniper/spotter combo working together.

Sniper package is awesome but it is a bit over the top for westeland missions since the stratis is a sniper heaven. Not too many places to hide.

Why in the world do mission makers add weapons and equipment that will clearly break their gametypes...? Then their users go on the Feedback Tracker and complain...

As you say, long range rifles like that would be fine on say, Chernarus or Lingor, but a mission designer worth his salt would know better than to add it on Stratis.

They add them because they know the twitchy call of duty types only want to play with rail guns and bunny hop.
