All bolt-actions will deliver a one hit kill via headshot - I think only the Boys AT and Panzerbische are capable of killing with a single hit to the body (you need to be 10-100 feet away for this to happen, however).
Iirc, the Jorgenson is one of the most accurate rifles in the game. Personally I find the ZH-29 wayyyy too godly to pass up but if you need to max out the Krag, make sure to use it's Low Drag Rounds and bipod for extreme ranges.
If you're lying down and you shoot and have a scope glint then, then you're just an easy head target, and by the time you get up and move it's too late
Using the bipod makes you an easy headshot target for long range weapons if the spit where you shoot from and see your scope glint
no the ZH is one shot kill if it's a headshot.
the thing is are you sure it was a headshot...
my point was that ZH makes same damage as other sniper rifles that require "bolt action" so I have no idea why would I use those?
what do you mean 34 damage? all snipers are slightly above 50 damage (2 shots kill).
You just have to practice, I find a good place to practice sniping is in combined arms as you'll have moving enemies to down, and when alerted they run too so you can practice moving headshots
Keep at it though, you'll have it gold in no time.
When it comes to the ZH-29, it may not be a 1hk even to the head but it has a box magazine, is insanely fast since it's semi-auto, and is a 2 hit kill weapon at any range regardless of where you hit while still being insanely accurate.
You can put any scope on it and it works with any playstyle.
As for thr Krag and other bolt-actions though, it just comes down to practice - once it "clicks", you'll be able to lead your shots with ease. I only recommend the bipod for its ease pf use - no point in worrying about scope sway when you don't have to
I used the ZH before and yes it was easier to get kills with, except it felt too easy, like I was using a semi automatic assault weapon. I was just wanting a bit more of a challenge, trying to figure the advantages the krag has over the other weapons. I'm also trying to do it's assignments for the camps.
Sorry, I saw someone had 34 damage on there, even so, if you accidently body hit someone and they heal before you can get your second shot, unless it's a headshot ( which they would already know you're trying to do that by that time ) the damage is so low that you'll need to shoot them 3 times with the last time probably could be using a handgun, or revolver. But it would still take to long and you might as well paint a big target on yourself.
True, except they don't move or react like real human players, and you don't have so many other snipers ,tanks, planes, and etc spotting you and shooting you before you can pull off your own shots.
I like the more challenging bolt action rifles , I've seen people on YouTube use the krag great, but I can't do the same thing. I know it has it's advantages and weaknesses, and I already know it's weaknesses but it's advantages aren't that clear to me. (I'm mainly talking about other sniper rifles) plus I'm trying to do it's assignments for the gun camos and etc.
