Hmm, perhaps this should be explained further in the sniper articles :)

As you perhaps know, there are three stages in sniping:
 * 1. Unlocked target
 * 2. Selected target
 * 3. Locked target

Stage 1, the unlocked target, is when the shot is not 100% accurate. At this rate, if you manage to get a so-called no-scope hit, you will deal the damage as described above. At stage 2, the selected target, your shot has a 100% accuracy and the crosshair turns green. If you get a hit on an opponent you will deal the same damage as in stage one with the added benefit of accuracy. However, when at stage 3, the locked target, the crosshair will turn white. Any hit you make on opponents if the crosshair is white, will be a headshot 1-hit-kill no matter which rifle is fired.

I'll make this into an illustrated article once i get the time ^^ PM me or comment this if you have further questions - and i'll see if i can help you out ^^
