#3 - Kar98K

The Kar98K in Free Fire

The Kar98K in Free Fire is one of the most balanced sniper rifles, and is pre-equipped with an 8x scope. It can also contend with the AWM in body-shot damage percentage. It has a damage rate of 90 and a range of 84, which is a pretty remarkable statistic.

The Kar98k, however, can't really execute the target in a single hit due to its lower headshot damage.

Disclaimer: What may seem like a good weapon for one person may not be the same for others. The choice of guns entirely depends on the players and their preferences.
