Keep in mind that the Sniper Rifle is one of the only two weapons that is not affected by damage drop-off due to range (the other being the Hunting Rifle), making it much more effective at killing ranged targets than other weapons.
Special Infected can be killed before their abilities become usable as well. High fire rate, damage, accuracy and magazine sizes allow for players to deal significant damage to the Tank and Witch before they become able to retaliate.
Due to the Sniper Rifle's effectiveness at long ranges, it is beneficial to kill Special Infected before they reach you or your teammates. The Sniper Rifle is slightly less accurate than the Hunting Rifle however, it compensates for this with having a 30-round magazine instead of a 15-round magazine, as well as a significantly higher ammunition reserve (210 compared to 165). Pairing the Sniper Rifle with a melee weapon is highly advantageous, as it gives you something to rely on when surrounded by Common Infected who can and will throw off your aim, as well as making up for the rifle's poor close range crowd clearing abilities (because it is so accurate, it does not have the spread necessary to blanket a wide area with gunfire). With a long range, high damage output, no damage drop-off for distance, and a significantly shortened reload speed (courtesy of this strategy), this weapon is limited only by the accuracy of the user and the positioning of the weapon spawn. With a nearby Sniper Rifle weapon spawn, one can simply pick up a new, fully loaded rifle much faster than waiting the full-time necessary to reload the weapon normally. Make use of all 30 bullets in your magazine before reloading during a Horde. As this weapon relies on a magazine, you cannot stop the reloading apart from switching weapons (although this restarts the timer, which is not helpful only interrupt the reload if you or a teammate are in significant immediate danger). Be aware that the Sniper Rifle takes significantly longer to reload than an Assault Rifle. Although the Sniper Rifle has a good rate of fire, it is only necessary to utilize it against Tanks, Witches and Chargers, which are the strongest of the Special Infected. It also has the power to knock back Riot Infected, unlike any other non-shotgun firearm. In Realism mode, it takes two shots on Easy and Normal difficulties and three past that to kill a Common Infected. This allows you to either allow multiple Infected to move themselves into overlapping positions or to adjust one's shooting position to create target overlaps, and thereby drop multiple enemies with one shot. #PISTOL SOURCEMOD L4D2 FULL#
The Sniper Rifle enjoys "infinite penetration"―so long as it doesn't hit a wall or a Special Infected it can't penetrate, the bullet will deal full damage and kill Infected. Make use of the rifle's piercing ability by aiming chest-high to increase your chances of striking many Infected in a line. 
Outside of Realism mode, every hit is a guaranteed kill against Common Infected headshots are unnecessary.Your weapon is highly effective at dispatching enemies at a range, and reducing the number of Infected attacking you will improve your chances of survival. When entering an area, try to clear out the Infected before they can react to your presence.Activating the scope tightens the crosshairs faster than standing still. Using the Sniper Rifle's scope while moving allows a player to cover the team without stopping (although they will be slowed). The Sniper Rifle is the second most accurate weapon in Left 4 Dead 2 (disregarding the Counter-Strike snipers), the most accurate being the Hunting Rifle.Use the scope for pinpoint accuracy, even from great distances. A modified battle rifle, the Sniper Rifle is a dependable weapon when mobile and absolutely deadly when stationary.
