Yes, it doesn't have nearly as much capacity as the Retal, yes, it's bulky, yes, the darts do tear easily, but hear me out.

Arguably, the Magnus is far more accurate. The darts don't get pushed around nearly as much by wind (due to greater inertia), and they're actually pretty stable on their own, which makes predicting shots MUCH easier. The sights are pretty good (not that you'll need them) as well. And, if you're gentle with the priming (as a sniper, that should be an easy task) the darts won't get torn up.

And, since you already have a Centurion, you can actually replace the 3-dart internal mag with your 6-dart MEGA clip, as shown here. Add a stock and you're good to go. You

Bro... you are a genius! Your theory make sense. Range master is way better... so is PVC Pfff, the ''Range Master?! ''That's a good joke.

That thing can't even top the Retaliator in range, and has a fire rate of pretty much 1 round per eternity. We're going for function here, not form.

A blowpipe, while good, can't match a Magnus in ease of use, possible rate of fire, or capacity. It's ranges are better, but you're sacrificing a lot to get it. Besides, he said Elite blaster. He doesn't want to use homemades. Or, for that matter, Buzz Bee. The Range Master still has extreme accuracy I will give it that- Buzz Bee makes extremely accurate blasters. I once shot my cousin with a Hawk through a gap barely wider than the dart itself.

But it's one-dart capacity, long reload time, and lesser ranges make it a worse choice overall than the Magnus or Retaliator or indeed, a blowpipe.

If we were going for homemades, little tops a +Bow with slugs for accuracy, although they can get really big (3-4 feet in length with barrel attached). He said sniping... Accuracy is more important over range for sniping. the rangemaster still gets respectable ranges. rof and capacity isn't that important in sniping...

A pvc blowpipe is hardly a homemade... its just cut down pvc... also he said elite not elite mega... heck if you don't care about feeling like a "sniper" buy a firestrike and get some accurate darts The Mega blasters are Elite. ALSO, HE SAID ELITE, NOT BUZZ BEE OR HOME-MADE! Elite is Elite, Elite Mega is Elite Mega... Most people don't Think of the Elite series combined with Mega. Instead Mega is a related series... also I don't care... If a blaster from another brand is better then I will reccomend it... I don't see a problem because the things I have recommended perform as well as elites. If you don't see any problem in recommending blasters from a completely different company, and home-made blasters as well, why do you see a problem in someone recommending something that is from a sub-series of the same line of blasters that he asked for, and is from the same company, as well?

Agreed that the Magnus is one of the most accurate things ever made. Magnus, Crossfire, and Alpha Trooper. I don't have a Retal, so could someone post a link to an accuracy test for it?
