Barrett 50 Cal.

Summary
The Barrett 50 Cal, known formally as the Barrett M82 .50 Caliber, is by far one of the most devastating weapons in the game for anyone with good aim. It's able to kill an Elemental with a single headshot and leave a Digger and a Ticker crippled. This can even kill a Brute with five headshots.

Make sure to watch your ammo count. Although it's great at taking down zombies one by one, its magazine size is still fairly small.

Above all, this weapon is best used to supply support. This should be used to take down more dangerous targets before they're able to close the gap on other survivors.

Background Story
This is by far the hardest hitting weapon that R-Brain Hardwork has ever made. Originally, it was created to punch through heavy armor and cover, but with its extremely deadly bullets and amazing accuracy, this is the perfect weapon for sharpshooters in the apocalypse. It cuts through zombie flesh like a hot knife through butter, and this grants it the ability to penetrate through multiple zombies.

Tips

 * The Leupold adds 100 range and 50 accuracy so you should pick it up as soon as possible.
 * This weapon is devastating on high ground, and getting that scope elevates its potential further.
 * A reliable secondary is highly recommended due to this weapon's lack of ammo and lack of reliability in close range.
 * The Barrett 50 Cal. can be very useful on the Void map, due to its long range and penetrating capabilities and that zombies spawn often far away and grouped together on the map.
 * The penetration ability is a small perk. Use it whenever you can.
 * The Bell will help the zombies to gather in one straight line.
 * The pierce can and will explode the tanks on a Ticker's back regardless of where you're firing from.
 * Damage doesn't deteriorate for every zombie you pierce.
 * As with other long range rifles, it's not recommended to use this weapon in first person.
 * Your situational awareness is greatly lowered and can get you killed.
 * It's recommended to use this weapon on more open maps such as Farmhouse and Last Harvest.
 * Ammo is scarce, so if needed, equip some armor that supplies extra clips.
 * Due to the small magazine size and delay between shots, this weapon is not recommended for trying to take on a Brute by yourself unless you seriously know what you're doing.
 * This gun, along with the CK Swat, is killer on Free For All.
