The AR-15.50 is one of the most underrated DMRs in the game, most likely because of Mav’s usual role of making holes on reinforced walls, that’s why he’s seldom sniping from long range. But make no mistake, this baby does a lot of damage as a designated marksman rifle, not to mention that it looks completely badass. 

What makes AR-15.50 great:

• High stopping power
• Attachment options
• Stable recoil

Weapon stats:

• Damage – 52
• Mobility – 50
• Capacity – 10

8. BOSG.12.2

Now this is not a designated marksman rifle, but let’s face it, it’s mostly used as one. At 125 damage, this gun is one of the most powerful in the game. One hit from this gun can be fatal or would probably put an opponent in a down-but-not-out (dbno state). It also has a fast fire-rate and its only weakness is its very low (2) bullet capacity per magazine. This gun is actually classified as a shotgun, but make no mistake, it’s one of the most dangerous long-range guns in Siege.

What makes BOSG.12.2 great:

• Very high damage
• Attachment options
• Versatility

Weapon stats:

• Damage – 125
• Mobility – 50
• Capacity - 2

7. TCSG12

The TCSG12 is another gun on the list which isn’t classified as a designated marksman rifle. Like the BOSG.12.2, it’s classified as a shotgun, but everybody treats it as the “defending sniper rifle”. It has high stopping power and is pretty stable as long as the player doesn’t go crazy with the firing rate. 

What makes TCSG12 great:

• High damage
• Stable firing

Weapon stats:

• Damage – 53
• Mobility – 50
• Capacity - 10

6. CAMRS

One of the best designated marksman rifles in the game. It looks very badass with the Black Ice skin too. This DMR makes a whopping 69 damage per shot unsuppressed, it’s highly customizable, and its recoil is quite easy to control as long as the player maintains a good shooting pace. It’s a great weapon for Buck because with the CAMRS he can excel at any range, using it for medium to long-range encounters and the skeleton key’s under-barrel shotgun for close ones.

What makes CAMRS great:

• Heavy damage
• Stable recoil
• Attachment options

Weapon stats:

• Damage – 69
• Mobility – 50
• Capacity - 20

5. 417

Another very underrated designated marksman rifle in the game. Probably because most Twitch and Lion players mostly use their assault rifles instead of this one. Understandable, but players really shouldn’t sleep on this bad boy. Its recoil can be pretty rough, but it has higher bullet capacity than most DMRs. It also has a wide variety of attachments to choose from in order to customize the gun to suit your play style.

What makes 417 great:

• High damage
• Attachment options
• Bullet capacity

Weapon stats:

• Damage – 69
• Mobility – 50
• Capacity - 20

4. SR-25

Our attacking Navy Seal operator wouldn’t be complete without his SR-25 designated rifle. The SR-25 shares a lot of similarities with the 417. They both have some really good attachment options, and both have around about the same recoil pattern. 

What makes SR-25 great:

• High damage
• Attachment options
• Bullet capacity

Weapon stats:

• Damage – 51
• Mobility – 38
• Capacity - 20

3. Mk 14 EBR

I honestly wouldn’t argue with the above video’s thumbnail. The Mk 14 EBR is pretty OP. The wide variety of attachments available to it makes it very customizable to the players’ own strengths. It has a pretty rough recoil, but it's easy to get used to its recoil and master the proper fire rate for this gun. Just like most DMRs in the game, this gun also does heavy damage, even with its fast fire-rate.

What makes Mk 14 EBR great:

• High damage
• Attachment options
• High fire-rate

Weapon stats:

• Damage – 60
• Mobility – 50
• Capacity - 20

2. CSRX 300

One hit from Kali’s designated marksman rifle almost always guarantees a fatality or at least a down-but-not-out (dbno) state. It’s the gun with the most damage in the game. And even though its fire rate is slow and each shot leaves a very visible bullet trace; knowing that there’s a Kali on the attacking team immediately unsettles the defenders, and knowing that they can be neutralized with just one shot can make any defender mess up their rhythm.

What makes CSRX 300 great:

• Very high damage
• Long-range recon

Weapon stats:

• Damage – 127
• Mobility – 50
• Capacity - 5
