The Power Drill requires you to be near your opponent for it to be effective. You can use the Ninja and Cold-Blooded perks, as well as the Sleeper Agent field upgrade to sneak your way past enemy lines and jump them from behind. The Tracker perk leaves enemy footprints behind and this should help you hunt down your targets.
With all 3 perks equipped, you gain access to the Recon Specialty. This reveals all enemy positions as soon as you respawn, giving you a head start on who to target next.
