Storm Scout Sniper Rifle

The Storm Scout Sniper Rifle is a Sniper Rifle in Fortnite: Battle Royale. It was added in Season 9. The version of this weapon is the Storm Scout, which behaves identically.

Functionality
The Storm Scout Sniper Rifle functions very similar to other Snipers, such as the Bolt-Action or Semi Automatic, with its key difference being its magazine size, and unique feature to locate, and track the next storm circle. When aiming down sights with this weapon, in the bottom left hand corner, there will be a small logo of the map, with the current circle, and the next circle present. This can be used to relocate into the storm circle before other players and make it far less likely for you to die to it. Aside from this, it functions as a regular sniper rifle, having a projectile bullet, as well as exceeding at long ranges, and being weak at close ranges.

Stats
Storm Scout Sniper Rifles range from dealing 81 Damage per shot to 85 Damage per shot (72.9 - 76.5 damage per second). All Storm Scout Sniper Rifles use. The Storm Scout Sniper Rifle has a headshot multiplier of 2.5x. The Storm Scout Sniper Rifle is a Fast Moving Projectile. As it uses a scope, the fired bullet will always shoot from the center of the crosshair. There is no damage falloff on the Storm Scout Sniper Rifle's projectiles.

Trivia

 * The Storm Scout Sniper Rifle is the product of a mix-up during one of the patches in Season 9. By accident, the Eye Of The Storm Tracker was added to the game and provided the tracking function of the Storm Scout Sniper Rifle, but was an item instead of a weapon. The tracker was promptly removed, and later the Storm Scout Sniper Rifle was added to provide the storm tracking function to the game.
 * The weapon is based off of the real world Shadowtrax8, an experimental firearm designed with advanced technology to increase accuracy.
 * The weapon was leaked in the Presents item in Creative for around two days, before it was patched. This was before the weapon was properly released.
