How do you deal damage with the peacekeeper?

The pk came up in gun run tonight, it was a very bad cheater lobby, so I had to sneak around to get kills. The pk was the third gun, so I was stuck on that gun since it did 9 damage when my opponent...

@AymCTL Snipers are the biggest "what the..." thing in GR. Why are they there? It's a cqc mode! Kraber especially is abysmal in GR. I have zero clue why they'd remove the easiest hip-fire sniper for the one that only does 140 dmg once per 5th second, while fighting someone with an smg and 150hp. It can only win a fight if you find someone low or shoot their face clean off.
The PK; I actually feel it's been silently buffed this season. I rarely see the 9's this last week.
Anyway, the secrets of hitting? Don't know. It's sometimes better to relax and let someone move into the reticle rather than chasing them around with your reticle, as it's a very slow gun and you die if you miss once, or twice if you're lucky. It's a very backbone/muscle memory kind of gun, I feel.

Yeah, I think it sounds like I was shooting people too far away. Maybe the PK is more likely to hit at 9 when close up. Sniper weapons like the Kraber make no sense to be in gun run, I agree. I try to shoot people with it, but usually have to rely on squad mates to finish them off.

Thanks for the advice, I think I'll try to work with muscle memory in the firing range and see what numbers I can get both close up and further back.

@AymCTL PK is better up close if hip firing or fast ads firing. It only works well at distance if you wait for the choke to narrow the spread.

As for the kraber.....Barrel stuff it in their chest, hit them and then melee. You will still move off the gun and they will go backwards. Or play from distance and hope for a week person hit.
