Although this accuracy is not uncommon for a bot, the reaper is one of the few that regularly accomplishes this feat with slow delivery weapons, such as a nailgun.
Every second that a reaper is alive and in sight of you, it will be firing at you, and probably hitting you, thus your only recourse is to take out the reaper with maximum haste.
Fortunately, although the reaper's shot prediction is quite good, it is possible to throw its aim off a bit by doing some creative strafing, especially when the reaper is firing at you from a long distance.
