I've found some info about Ballista. It was designed by FN Herstal and is participating in Precision Sniper Rifle program (the same MSR from MW3 participates).

Ah. I've seen the real steel Ballista in images before, but I wasn't sure what it was. And then I come along seeing this, and I thought Treyarch came up with their own weapon. Nope :| SPARTAN-014 (talk) 03:58, August 20, 2012 (UTC)SPARTAN-014

Idle Sway & Scoped Speed

The Ballista has lower idle sway (35/3 vs 60/3) and faster strafe speed (44% vs 40%) than the DSR 50. I'm not sure why it was undone; the article did not mention it previously.

Why is it you're putting the numbers here, but in your edit you just put "it's faster"? The reason it was reverted is because it looks like you're just talking about the faster run speed, if you have stats to back up your edit, put them in the eidt, don't half-arse the edit then complain with stats because the edit was poorly executed in the first place.

I said "faster speed when scoped". I am sure that nobody would think that Stalker gives you increased movement speed when normally walking if the description was simply "Faster movement when aiming". However, I will put these stats on the page, since I agree it's useful information to know. Please make an effort to be polite as possible also; I apologize if the simplicity of my edit aggravated you, and I am willing to fix mistakes, but I cannot say I appreciated the tone of the message terribly much. Wiffle357 (talk) 02:22, May 10, 2013 (UTC)
