*When you are practicing, don't just keep aiming for the target's head when you are completely under control and in an easy situation. Rehearse the no-scope shot under pressure, so when you are panicked, you know you are capable of handling the pressure. | *When you are practicing, don't just keep aiming for the target's head when you are completely under control and in an easy situation.

*Try to shoot them once, then [[melee]] if they get close enough. This is the best way to do it, since you use only one shot and still get the kill. It's easy and doesn't waste ammo unless you miss the original shot. | |||
*Another strategy for no-scoping is jumping. Instead of taking the time to line up the shot on their head, get the target on the center of their body and jump. Pull the trigger as it passes their head on the way up or on the way down. It's almost like face painting but with no auto-aim. It works most of the time, as long as they don't move. | *Another strategy for no-scoping is jumping.

*No-scoping is especially easy in narrow corridors, as well as effective. Sometimes players will take a [[Shotgun]] into a narrow passageways and just charge you to get close enough for the fatal shot. No-scoping with a Sniper Rifle is a great counter-measure to this technique. This is especially true for the shotty tunnels on [[Sanctuary (Level)|Sanctuary]]. | *No-scoping is especially easy in narrow corridors, as well as effective.

*A good tactic is to quickly rise to the opponents head once with your reticule. Once that is achieved, "swipe" or "whip" to the left or the right and instinctively pull the trigger. The auto-aim will slow a bit; slow enough to the point where you pull the trigger and achieve a true "headshot". Remember: don't panic. The idea is to make your opponent panic. | *A good tactic is to quickly rise to the opponents head once with your reticule.

*In ''Halo: Combat Evolved'', a good way to practice is to go to the level [[The Truth and Reconciliation (Level)|The Truth and Reconciliation]]. In ''Halo 2'' you can practice on [[Outskirts (Level)|Outskirts]] and [[Regret (Level)|Regret]]. In ''Halo 3'' practice at the beginning of [[The Ark (Level)|The Ark]]. | *In ''Halo: Combat Evolved'', a good way to practice is to go to the level [[The Truth and Reconciliation (Level)|The Truth and Reconciliation]].

*You will have varying time frames to complete your no-scope, but generally no longer than a few seconds. It is important to find your shot and take it as fast as your can before opposition strikes and your chances at pulling it off heavily decrease. | *You will have varying time frames to complete your no-scope, but generally no longer than a few seconds.

*''You don't have to get headshots to be good at no-scoping.'' To get a no scope body shot and clean it up with the BR is as acceptable as a one-shot kill. | *''You don't have to get headshots to be good at no-scoping.''
