Improve Sniper Rifle Accuracy and Rewarding Mechanics

the sniper is the worst I've played in any VR game rn. It doesn't feel rewarding at all because hitting feels random. I aim for the ennemy, it might hit, it might not hit, if not then keep shooting and shooting until it hits. Pavlov snipers have never been a problem for me. Maybe take inspiration from those.

I have a similar experience, the Arctic Warfare sniper rifle reticle has so much input lag that it feels like I'm dragging the barrel through molasses. Either muzzle velocity, gravitational acceleration or spread has some fantasy values, my shots often aren't connecting and none of my previous experience sniping in other games seem to carry over. I use a linear approximation of 0.16 s per 100 m as a rough velocity estimation for 5.56/7.62/.308 ammo in games with realistic ballistics modelling and it usually works reasonably well. Somehow I can't lead my shots in this game, even though most engagements occur within 100 m.
