The rundown
Range without the wait. The Assault Sniper swaps bolt-action precision for a semi-auto rhythm, letting you stack shots when one isn’t going to do it.
Semi-automatic sniper rifles trade a little accuracy for speed, feeding the next round automatically so a marksman can follow up without working a bolt. It is the designated-marksman idea: reach and rate of fire in one package, less surgical than a dedicated bolt gun but far more forgiving.
This one leans on screenshots and the wider lineup rather than clear trailer footage, so we’re holding it at low confidence for now. The exact model, optics and whether it makes the final cut are all unconfirmed. If it lands, it is the pick for marksmen who like a little insurance.
