'''Sniper Rifle''' is the [[Weapons by title (Borderlands 2 & Pre-Sequel)|title]] of a group of {{rarity link|common}} [[Sniper Rifle|sniper rifles]] in ''[[Borderlands 2]]'' and ''[[Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel]]''. They are manufactured exclusively by [[Hyperion]], and commonly spawns with the Dahl and Maliwan barrels.

== Usage & Description ==
Hyperion sniper rifles have low rate of fire; they start with low initial accuracy which increases while aiming and resets when players stop aiming. This makes them poor weapons for hipshooting or quick-scoping. Otherwise Hyperion sniper rifles have excellent accuracy and almost no recoil while aiming.

The Sniper Rifle can come with Dahl or Maliwan barrel, each one can give the gun different properties:
*[[Dahl]] barrel (stable) – Gives more recoil reduction, faster recoil recovery but decreased base damage.
*[[Maliwan]] barrel (standart) – Increases elemental effect chance (if the weapon spawn with an element) and accuracy.

== Notable variants ==
* [[Fremington's Edge]] – {{rarity|Unique}} sniper rifle (version from ''Borderlands 2'') with greatly increased zoom and critical hit damage when zoomed, and also increased damage and accuracy.
* [[Morningstar]] – {{rarity|Unique}} sniper rifle in ''Borderlands 2'' with increased damage and a nagging voice module.

== Notes ==
*The variants of this weapon in ''Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel'' can spawn with Hyperion's new-style or old-style sets of materials and prefixes.
**New-style Sniper Rifle commonly spawns with materials which are the same as in ''Borderlands 2''.
**For old-style Sniper Rifle see [[Sniper Rifle (Hyperion legacy)]].
