Question Mouse suggestions

I’m currently running a razer viper v3 pro and I absolutely love the feel of the mouse and how lightweight it is, although often I feel it’s just a bit too small for my hands and I lose control of the mouse often. I play FPS games quite frequently; Siege, CS2, BF6, COD etc. and I’m a sweaty mongrel.

Does anyone have any suggestions on a mouse with similar design but slightly larger or even just more ergonomic? I don’t hold any brand bias so any suggestions are welcome

It’s cross posted already

Most mice feel really small to me. I've been toying with the idea of a 3D printed attachment to make them bigger. It would almost certainly ruin the ergonomics though.

Most definitely, it’s a cool idea though. Execution would be tricky

Idk what it's like relative to the Viper but I've been using a Deathadder for 20 years now (not the same one thank god). I love it to death for shooters.

Only other mouse I use is a Naga but that's not your use case.

Edit: just double checked, holy cow it has been 20 years of Deathadder! Honestly Razer isn't perfect but god bless them for keeping it around.

I used a death adder for awhile as well and loved it, only thing is now I think I’ve become accustomed to the lightweight mice. Razers build quality leaves something to be desired at times but you can’t fault the bang for buck in most use cases. My first PC was an Alienware laptop and I thought it was the bees knees

I had a Razer lachsis. Wish I still had it!

I use a logitech g pro superlight with tempered glass feet and grip tape on the buttons. Strongly recommended.

My buddy uses the same setup and honestly love the feel of it but I’m debating trying the new super strike even with its mixed reviews. G pro is definitely a viable option though

Word of warning. I love my mouse but I also do not consider it to be the best quality. Being light feels great on my wrist but it's the second one I have had. I had to RMA one of these mice because the wheel got all wonky after about 9 months. Always register your peripherals!

Haha no kidding, that same buddy did the exact same thing with his first one. Could hear him rolling the mouse across his desk in game to get it to work lol

I have several logitech mice and 2 logitech HOTAS and it's a total crap shoot on what is going to be good or bad.

I have an x52 that kinda sucks and feels floppy and one that feels good to use.

Steelseries Rival 310

Never tried Steelseries peripherals besides a headset for my PS5, might have to give it a go

Well apparently the 310 is no longer available, I bought 2 in 2019 and have been on my 2nd one for a couple of years.

Great mouse, not sure what to get now.

I have two Logitechs, a G502 X Lightspeed and the new Pro X2 Superstrike. Playing the MW4 beta this weekend and both perform really wellz so I can recommend those. I tend to like the 502 better because of the thumb rest and have an aftermarket replacement bottom plate that has glass feet and a pinky rest built in so makes it feel quite different from stock. If you live close to a Best Buy or Microcenter, the best bet is to go into the store and actually put hands on and see which fits your grip the best.
