Revolvers do 50 damage.
The problem with snipers is that the damage you deal can be dealt at any range. ANY range. This is why revolvers do less damage than shotguns. (LESS THAN HALF) If you start having snipers that hit harder than shotguns, even at close range, it's clearly unbalanced and overpowered. Let's not forget to mention that snipers are even more accurate than revolvers. Oh and one more thing, higher damage values means more damage directly to HP, this is also why you cannot have snipers with that high damage. You'll still die just as fast with someone that can actually aim.
