12.7 mm armor piercing. 1 shot. 1 kill. Range 2 km.
Most ATGM have a range of over 3 km.
Its impact, explosion can kill injure many bad guysRifle is much more accurate than ATGM. Rifle accuracy a few cm off at max range. ATGM a few meters off at max range.

That is not true itself either. The rifle you posted the video of weights over 12 kilos and only weighs one less than the 9K115-2 Metis-M (can be shoulder carried). Anti-material rifle themselves weigh a lot more than snipers but in return they have greater range.ATGM not as portable. Need to set up tripod launcher. Bigger target for enemy fire. Few rounds. Slow rate of fire. 12.7 mm rifle easy to carry. Lots of rounds. Fast rate of fire.
That depends on who is operating it. An unskilled sniper can miss out his target by several metres, whereas a skilled sniper will be able to hit the target with a lot more accuracy and chances of missing it will be much lower.Rifle is much more accurate than ATGM.

Except, ATGMs can easily operate out of range of these rifles.ATGMs are in the hundreds. 12.7 mm rounds are in the hundreds of thousands. It's not even close.

The blast can easily kill the sniper if the missile falls anywhere near the target. Whereas a bullet has to hit someone to kill them. And most times ATGM are fired from behind walls or solid fortifications. Example:Not necessarily. ATGM range is limited by the range of optics. Optics can hardly see men crawling on the ground at 2 km away.

ATGM explodes when it hits a target. I have seen TOW exploding nearby soldiers and the blast killing them. Can't really post videos due to the sites rules.Western ATGMs lack thermobaric. HEAT make a little hole. That's it. Unless an ATGM directly hits a person, it is useless against people. Might get a burn. But not lethal.
TOW has 12.4 kg warhead weight (more than half - high qiality explosives). In radius 6-7 m it will break bones tear up ur inner organs. Little holeWestern ATGMs lack thermobaric.
