Countering snipers with a scout rifle works out for me. Personally I'm using the Jade Rabbit, which is perfect for this IMO. Now what if the other guy is a little above average with sniping? Even when pumping him with headshots he still finds the stability/accuracy to land headshots (or bodyshot for that matter). I find something needs to be done about that, doesn't make sense to me. Still, I don't find snipers need to be nerfed, even though I choose not to use them. But just like op said.. the number of people using them is just too high
