Overview
The Marksman Rifle is a ranged weapon in 7 Days to Die. It can be looted from Supply Crates, Shotgun Messiah Crates, Munitions Boxes, and Feral Zombies or it can also be crafted. The Marksman Rifle uses 7.62mm Bullets as Ammunition and can hold 5 rounds. A Marksman Rifle will reload automatically or it can be done manually by pressing the reload key (default key 'R').
Combat
The Marksman Rifle is an extremely powerful long range Weapon that will kill almost all Zombies with a single shot to the head. It is also powerful at close range, although it only contains five cartridges per magazine, meaning it will require frequent reloading. It is a viable option for long range engagements with enemies, especially in more populated areas.

Notes
- A Marksman Rifle, like all weapons, can destroy blocks and structures, and is most effective from a distance where enemies won't be easily attracted.
- With the recent updates, the model has been changed to a much more detailed model, now based on the Remington R11 RSASS (Remington Semi Automatic Sniper System), a much more realistic weapon considering the game setting. Functionally it has remained more or less identical, however, despite the R11 RSASS having 15 more bullets per magazine and a faster rate of fire than the in-game model.
- Throughout the earliest alphas, the previous model of the sniper rifle was the Heckler & Koch PSG-1.
