So, with the latest update of Destiny, which kind of ruined sniping for some people I thought I might put this out there. Some changes they did to snipers were:
-Added a LOT of flinch.
-Reduced damage to the 1000 Yard Stare archetype.
-Reduced aim assist to the LDR, and Longbow.
-Slower handling speed.
-Overall Sniper ADS aim deflection multiplier increased to 1.9x (was 1.85x)
I only tested this with 3 scopes
Longview SRL10: Flinches Upwards
Shortgaze: Flinches Upwards
Ambush SLH15: FLINCHES DOWNWARDS
This is actually huge since they added a lot of flinch to snipers, and while using ambush you will flinch downwards you will atleast hit a body shot if you are getting shot at. This is of course my opinion.

Ambush has always been best scope.
