Hi guys, i'm trying to play as a vanu infiltrator but i'm having some problem sniping..I first thought it was related to my standard rifle (3 lines damage).. so i collected and bought the XM98 Orbit (wow, 13 lines damage!) but... first of all i can't hit a standing target from 300meters+  distance using a 17x scope. Then, how can be firerate of XM98 at max if you need to exit the scope view to shoot again? (if not necessary, tell me how pls). Finally i don't see so much difference between damages.. am i missing something? do the bullets got a parabola that is already descending at 300meters? i tried also from 700 but same story.. (i used the personal waypoint to get distances) .. any info is much appreciated, thanks!
