i gave a steyr scout and a mosin nagant to my lowest marksman mercs (60-70), and they did actually get good headshots from a considerable distance, but the could barely shot once every 2 rounds because of the reloading. recently a couple of elites dropped 2 dragunovs and i gave the immediately to these 2, but now their cth is very low, even on torso shots. what should i do?

Early in the game, as a rule, bolt-action rifles have better accuracy (in general, about 2x as much as a semi-auto), but obviously, take longer to reload; semi-auto rifles have less accuracy, but can fire as much as they well please.
Late game sniper rifles (anti-material) are mostly the same across the board, even taking rechamber into account.
However, I did just notice you said Dragunovs dropped. What kind of scopes do they have? That is probably something to do with it. I believe Scouts come with a sniper scope, and I'm not sure about the "moist nugget", as my friend calls it, but if the Dragunovs have PSO-1 scopes, that would explain a lot. Even a PSO-3 is inferior to a sniper scope.
Assuming you had two sniper rifles with equal scopes, it'd really be your call on which you like more.
