There are sniper rifles with short scopes on them, you and most snipers don't use them because they don't one-shot. Sniper rifles shouldn't win close combat matches especially against a shotgun or hand Cannon but those same weapons shouldn't win a long-range fight with a sniper rifle so I agree I should not be getting killed by a hand Cannon user while I'm using a sniper rifle at long range I'll give you that one. So pretty much I'm saying you want to use a sniper rifle in small Crucible Maps then use one of the sniper rifles that have the short scope but aren't that's powerful otherwise put on the armor that has the abilities on it that help with flinching for sniper rifles. That just means you have to grind to get that good roll. And it does help.
