Heavy Sniper in GTA 5

Overview

The Heavy Sniper is a sniper rifle in GTA 5 and GTA Online, sold at Ammu-Nation for $38,150. Its datamined figures are 216 damage, a fire rate of about 50 rounds per minute, a range figure of 1500 and a 6 round magazine, the second highest damage of any sniper rifle here. That 216 damage figure drops almost any target in one well placed hit, at the full 1500 range figure shared with the Sniper Rifle and Precision Rifle. The slow 50 rounds per minute rate and the 6 round magazine mean every shot has to count, since a miss costs real time reloading between rounds. It sits just below the Heavy Sniper Mk II on raw power, without needing a Weapon Workshop conversion or the cost that comes with one. The Heavy Sniper Mk II improves on it further through a Weapon Workshop conversion, adding more damage and special ammo. Until then, this base version is the hardest hitting sniper rifle available straight from Ammu-Nation.

Shots to kill: target health divided by damage per shot (216 damage), rounded up. Time to kill: shots minus one, times 60 divided by 50 rounds per minute - the first shot lands at time zero. Full armor is treated as one flat 200 pool. This weapon's PvP headshot modifier in the game files is 1.0, so headshots change nothing.
Bars scale each stat against the highest value among this game's weapons. Spread is tighter when lower. Numbers carry their source and game version. Hover or tap a date for details.
