Crackshot holding full ammunition
The Crackshot, sometimes known as the CS, or the Sniper, and the M24 in the game files, is a weapon class that has a sniper rifle with one bullet in the chamber and 12 additional ammunitions (prior to Version 0.50.8, the Crackshot contained 12 additional ammunitions, and even before, it had 20 bullets). The Crackshot can often kill opponents in one shot; when aimed at the center of the egg, a shot will deal 180 damage - almost enough to kill a person with full hard boil or overheal. A shot from the Crackshot is only non-fatal if the bullet misses the center area of the egg and hits the edge, dealing up to 60 damage. This can also happen when lag happens (both client and server-side), or when a blank occurs. If your opponent has the hard-boiled power-up, you will have to hit the dead center or else the other person will only be damaged because they have x2 the health. This is perhaps the most commonly used gun in the whole game, along with the Scrambler. Each bullet carton picked up off the ground supplies 4 bullets. The Crackshot is an excellent weapon for short, medium, or long range targets, as it can kill an opponent with 1 shot. There are currently 65 Crackshot skins in-game, but with more constantly being added, this number may not always be up to date.
The Crackshot is a multi-purpose weapon, and probably the most versatile weapon in the game, so it is also a popular weapon with ground dwellers, who can use it to one-shot enemies in alleys, tunnels, structures, corners, and trees. It works just fine in close-range. It has an advantage over the Whipper and EggK-47 (especially at long range), as even if users of those weapons trail you, you can quickly turn around and one-shot them. Also, if you are having trouble shaking off an opponent or have low health, you can climb up to the top of a ladder and guard the ladder while dropping a grenade. It is also popular in competitive Shell Shockers leagues and hosted events, with most teams having at least two Crackshot users. The Crackshot has a big percentage of hitting one shot. It's mostly the reason why in Shell Shockers montages or trickshots, the player will use a Crackshot. You can buy skins for the Crackshot when you buy the skin, it won't alter a player's performance in any way. However, there was a theory that the Crackshot from the Buck Rogers Set did more damage(facilitated from the Popular Content Creator Hazmatt), but this was soon debunked.

Gameplay Tips
- Crackshot bullets guarantee an insta-kill only if you hit the center of an enemy from any distance (unless you blank). Keep this in mind when aiming and shooting, but it matters less if your opponent has lower health or you're very close to them.
- It's extremely important to keep in mind that the Crackshot, like every other weapon, is not hitscan and shoots projectiles. Because of this, you will need to lead your shots from a distance and predict the movements of opponents in order to hit them.
- Make sure you have cover and unpredictable movement (such as jumping and strafing left and right) while pursuing a Crackshot user in order to make yourself more difficult to hit.
- You can hit Free Rangers, but you can't outsmart them, as they will just click twice when you are still. If you decide to challenge a Free Ranger, make sure you finish them off in one bullet to reduce the chances of this happening. Try to move erratically when you are reloading, so they cannot hit you with precision. If it’s too hard, use grenades and never ever walk in a straight line, try to move side to side while jumping to make it harder to get hit.
- Have a buddy near you if possible. You can deal with a few enemies, but the last thing you want is to be teamed. Have a buddy near you with a close-quarters weapon to deal with flankers, as this weapon is harder to use in close-quarters.
- Try not to jump while shooting, as this will greatly decrease the accuracy of your shot.
- Be wary of different melee and short-range combatants since they can kill you easily.
- Since the Crackshot is a long range weapon, camping at a high spot on a map is a good strategy because you can hit enemies from far away without them even noticing you.
- If you're a beginner who just started playing Shell Shockers, it's not recommended that you use this gun due to the fact that there's only one bullet in the gun and it will take a while to reload, so if you're a beginner you're better off using the Free Ranger as that can snipe with more bullets increasing your chance to get the kill. Advanced players frequently use this gun to one-shot other users, though.
- If you are using the Crackshot, the bullet takes a while to hit the target, so you need to shoot where you think they will go. With some experience, you will be able to predict your enemy's movements and get some high streaks.
- The grenade its a really helpful thing while using the Crackshot, you can use it to force your enemies to a specific place and get a easier shot at them. The grenade can be used when you are running away from someone, this happens frequently when someone with a close range gun is chasing you.
- If you are in a close range battle while using the Crackshot, it is helpful to finish off your enemy with the melee or pistol, (rather than reloading) if your shot did not kill them.
- For more accurate shots, stand still as you crosshair zoom into the center.
- After you reload, immediately stand still and your crosshair will spawn back into the center ready for a fast and accurate shot.
- In close range fights with another crackshot user, even if you opponent is high hp, it is useful to melee them before reloading.
- In ultra-close range fights, stopping to aim is not necessary, as the enemy hitbox completely fills your reticle

Trivia
The old Crackshot appearance before Version 0.25.5
- Before Version 0.25.5 (November 2019), when classes and guns were more distinct from each other, the Crackshot was referred to as "M2DZ" when talking about the gun itself, and "Crackshot" only when selecting that class in the weapons menu.
