VSDAlso known as the SVD, the VSD is arguably the best Sniper Rifle in DayZ with its quick rate of fire and high damage. Combining this firearm with an optic and an AK suppressor makes it something to be feared. Fires 7.62x54 Rounds.M 70The M 70 Tundra is also known as the Winchester and is widely considered to be one of the best Sniper Rifles in DayZ. Using .308 rounds, this Sniper Rifle has high damage and is best used at range. The Hunting Scope makes this weapon very powerful at sniping at a range, and allows the Improvised Suppressor so you can be stealthy while using this firearm.

A weapons Base Damage, Air Friction, Initial Speed, Typical Speed and Default Damage Override stats determine when a weapon or ammo type will drop-off in damage AND how quickly it drops off in damage.

Most weapons in DayZ are immediately impacted by damage dropping off over distance once fired. Moreover, when shooting players at a very long distance in DayZ, damage drop-off impacts weapon damage significantly.

Beyond a certain distance in DayZ, it becomes better to aim for the head of a player to inflict maximum damage and have any chance of one-shoting them with a burst of damage.

Note that projectile based weapons calculate damage drop off differently to weapons that fire rounds. Therefore, projectile weapons are not exact on this chart, instead showing a rough average of how their damage drops off.

Weapons in DayZ can be split into serveral weapon categories that are as follows: Assault Rifles, Sniper Rifles, Sub Machine Guns, Rifles, Shotguns, Pistols and Projectile Firearms.

DayZ weapons have a lot of stats that impact how a weapon will react to different situations. These stats can be changed slightly or drastically by attaching attachments to your weapons in DayZ.

Rifles are long firearms that are powerful and can hit targets accurately at range. Making them a great choice stealthy players that like to shoot from a distance.

Shotguns are incredible dangerous up close, but lack in effectiveness at medium and especially long distance. Shotguns are best used in urban combat for this reason.

Handguns are compact firearms that can only be shot and handled with one hand. They are less powerful and accurate than rifles, but they are more concealable and portable. They are classified into several categories, including revolvers and pistols. While the cylinder of a revolver rotates in place of a magazine, the magazine of a handgun may hold a significant number of rounds.
