I primarily play 1v1 games and consider myself a reasonably skilled player (rank ~1150 as German) but have encountered roadblocks against a double sniper (with guards to counter T2 vehicles) opening and a triple maxim + mortar opening.
T1 as Germans offers few effective counters to two soviet snipers. Mortars quickly need to move, as frontline grenadiers quickly become ineffective in combat. MGs are a risk; with four men, they are just like grenadiers, but must retreat for fear of the MG42 falling into the enemy's hands.
In T1, a sniper is really the best option. Firing literally one shot at a time and moving to a different location and shooting in response to the Soviet snipers is the only way. The tip said about vetting the sniper and using the incendiary round is a good idea!
A sniper in a scout car is B.S. It should have accuracy penalties even when stationary (assuming that the soldier must stand, rather than crouch or prone to shoot).
I put a German sniper in a 250 HT and got flanked by some shock troops.
Unfortunately, there is no "cower inside the vehicle" button, so he took a few too many PPsH rounds in the face...
As it is right now, the best thing one can do when there are 2+ snipers on the field is to play a non-aggressive game and push at multiple locations simultaneously and pressure cutoffs.
Wait for your enemy to mess up or T34 rush your base. If you just wasted your fuel on a scout car and an HT that gets destroyed by guards and an AT gun and you see 3 T34s coming for you, pray that the one teller mine you layed (instead of getting a med bunker or LMG42s) and the one pak gun and the 25 muni you have for a panzerfaust can hold back the T34 horde.
Snipers must be why Germany lost the war...
