Paintball Sniper

Paintball Sniper is a player who is patient, can play alone and is extremely confident in his own abilities to make the “kill shot” when it comes down to it. Paintball Snipers are usually perched up in hidden place, unaware to other players. It is usually a player with a great shot who is the sniper.

Paintball Snipers do not need a ton of special equipment, just a good sense of where to hide and when to shoot. With good strategy, smart thinking and a little bit of luck a snipe can be anyone who wants to be it. The distance a paintball can fly is directly dependent on the speed a ball is traveling when it leaves the barrel. Since safety dictates that a ball leave the barrel at under 300 fps, very few upgrades will increase the distance that you can shoot from.

Since most guns shoot about the same distance, be sure that you find a gun that is accurate and consistent. The key to being a good Paintball Sniper is the ability to hit your target on the first try. A gun that does not consistently shoot the same speed or if there is significant variation in where the ball goes from one shot to the next will not allow for one-shot kills which are vital to the position.
