The best Battlefield 6 and Redsec sniper rifle has been pretty well established since the game came out, and even the updates introduced by Battlefield 6 Season 2 haven't done much to shift the rankings when there's been one guaranteed head-popper since the game's release. Quick scoping is far less of a thing in BF6 than it is in other similar games, so right now the sniper rifle meta is all about landing high-impact shots at distance - and none of them can do that quite like the M2010 ESR can.
Best Battlefield 6 Sniper Rifles
To be clear, in Battlefield 6 you should probably only be using the M2010 ESR. It's not well suited to certain maps like Cairo, but then again, no sniper rifle works in those tight urban areas. If you prefer a more mid-range, street-level confrontation, check all the best Battlefield 6 weapons for that.
Instead, snipers thrive in Liberation Peak, Operation Firestorm, and all the larger maps where you can fire on foes from hundreds of meters away. If you're finding scoping out enemies tricky, make sure you have the Battlefield 6 Range Finder equipped as an attachment.

The best Sniper Rifles in Battlefield Redsec's meta right now is as follows:
- M2010 ESR: The starting Sniper Rifle is just too good not to be the weapon of choice. It's a good mixture of range, power and accuracy, and thrives in Redsec's open spaces, like the greens around the golf course or the coastline around the lighthouse.
- Mini Scout: It's not as good as the M2010, but if you want something that splits the difference between a true Sniper Rifle and a DMR, the Scout can work for speed and versatility.
We've put two rifles for the sake of choice, but the reality is that, like Multiplayer, the Battlefield Redsec weapon meta is just dominated by the ESR right now, and a true sniping player shouldn't be using anything else. Just make sure you're setting yourself up to use it properly, on rooftops and in open spaces where you can pick off enemies from a distance. You should also keep in mind that the introduction of armor plating means it'll take more shots to down players than it would in the core game.
