Don't get me wrong, I love the intervention and it's all I use when I quickscope competitively (Usually get around a 9-kill streak or so before dying, so I play 5-7-9 -That's without using my PM/Harrier, @ 9-kill streak. I've gotten a nuke from quickscoping before.

) But anyway, they're identical, and I prefer the Barrett .50 Cal when I'm playing aggressively. If you can resist the urge to spray the second you miss or get a hit marker, it resets on its sights faster than the intervention's bolt, so... Also, if you can manage to learn how to do this, you may be better off with the Barrett as well

This is true. But, it's all about preferences. However, they vary in many ways. Intervention only has 5 bullets a clip and is bolt action. Barret has 10 bullets a clip and is semi-automatic and has the largest amount of recoil. If you're gonna snipe w/ the Barrett, you better be accurate, it makes a big boom and has a bit of a kick. Same with the Intervention, it's bolt action. Remember, aim for the chest or higher. The Barrett 50. cal could save your life in a CQB situation. Intervention is a bit easier to quick scope with due to lack of a lens cover. I'd go with both. I recommend you use Barrett 50.cal silenced, it's kinda fun and sneaky, though, you gotta aim exactly for the chest. For, intervention I recommend anything but a silencer.
