This is what I've learnt from people about this gun:
1.when you click the shoot button, don't move, but just @the exact moment, rest of the time, you have to move constantly;
2.after shooting, no matter you kill or not, immediately switch to your side arm, ie. deagle, move, and switch back to AWM to save time(because the reload of AWM is slower than switch to side arm)/move faster/prepare for face-to-face combat, you sort of doing this shoot-switch & move-switch back-scope-shoot-switch cycle, esp. when you see several rifle/msg users coming in your way;
3.apart from legs/hands, other places, 1 bullet 1 kill, so don't need hs to kill, but if you want, yeah, defnitely;
4. in the end, you have to be very good at your side arm, esp. hs people with only your side arm, sometimes you need it to save your life

Also if you don't have the SPOP character, I would suggest getting it, you move a lot faster which makes up for the weight of the gun
No. You don't.
OT: Always shoot when the enemy his name pops up, practise alot on your dragshots. That's about it. -

uhhhhh no? k man if u wanna think dumb sht then go ahead. but no need to give out ur noob advice to other ppl -
Just keep practicing. Use your secondary everytime you need to change your position. Don't run around too much unless you learn how to quickscope. Stay closer to cover, you don't have the speed to dance around bullets. Listen carefully, you can't let an SMG dude run around you, you gonna get killed fast. Don't go in first, let your allies to shield you. You're a sniper, not assault gunner. Use your grenades wisely too, those can help to take down other snipers/smgs that have you pinned. And don't try sniping SMGs too much. Their constant fire just won't let you aim. See an SMG shooting ya? Get the side arm.

Learn about prescoping (anglez), quickscoping, quickswitching, different techniques of peaking, effectiveness of the occasional crouch. Make a choice if you miss - retreat, pistol (learn to pistol if you can't), or make a dodge / stand ground and take another shot.

You fail. Number 2 is just stupid, how can switching wep switching back and then coccking it be quicker than just coccking it? -
Big issue with players I see. Quick switch is good to jump or retreat behind a wall, doing so with a knife compared to AWM makes your movement quicker. Moving into a space opened up by a kill could also work. Quick switch is also good for bringing out your secondary to fire. Trying to quick switch while multiple enemies are prescoping you, something I see alot in TDM (you don't get to see as much closeup in other modes), results in death.You fail.
