Hello everybody Welcome back to Sniper elite 4 best rifle where today we’ll be looking at the best bolt action rifles in the game the bolt actions in this game essentially fall into one of two categories.
Either it has a 16 times zoom or it doesn’t the low zoom rifles are all pretty much statistically identical So for those my advice is to go with whatever one you think looks the best.
Which will obviously be the enfield however the 16-time zoom rifles do have some cool differences and contrary to popular belief the answer isn’t always mosin nagant this like my semi-autos content.
Which i will put up in the top right now will be a ranking although do bear in mind that whilst i’m ranking these rifles on their ability to perform at Range different rifles are good at different things like we see in Minerva fallout 76.
So without further ado let’s get into this if you don’t know what a good rifle looks like you’ll be very familiar with the man literature our sixth place entry to be clear despite what i said 18 words ago the manlixer is not a bad rifle.
Long-range Rifles
It just doesn’t fill any particular role when compared to the other long-range Rifles yes it has a straight pull but the ross has one of those too it doesn’t have the highest capacity or the best muzzle velocity.
The highest damage simply put the manlixer is unremarkable if it had the feature from real life where the stripper clip ejects out of the gun after the last round is expended it would at least have been called.
But as far as i can tell it doesn’t have That either in fifth place as the obligatory wild card we have the zh29 holds acclaimed fame as being the only semi-automatic with a 16-time zoom.
Which as you can probably tell means it isn’t directly comparable to the rest of our rifles in this list at range it is obviously worse than the other rifles in this list.
But its rapid fire and decent damage Definitely say something and the fact is magazine is bigger than greece’s national debt probably helps too all in all the zh29 is a very very competent and deadly rifle.
But i said i’d rank these rifles on their ability to perform at ridiculous range and whilst the zh29 can it does struggle against the more sophisticated bolt actions in fourth place we have the ross mark 3. Whilst the whole idea of the canadians manufacturing.
Human beings is very strange
Something that hurts other human beings is very strange to me and also to everyone else when they do it they do it well whilst the ross does have a scope that appears to be stolen from fallout 4’s cutting room floor.
It is a very good weapon nonetheless the straight pull bolt allows a rapid cyclic action whilst maintaining good velocity and damage which helps out no End.
When dealing with multiple targets the ross is the first weapon on this list that i would say is genuinely viable although there is of course the argument to be made for the zh29 in third place we have the mauser rifle.
Which is a weapon that everyone seems to forget about which is quite a shame seeing as the rifle is actually quite good where the mosin nagant.
The kokano are fairly comparable and the ross as Good as it is is substantially worse than these two.
The mauser acts
The mauser acts as a nice little stepping stone in between those who have and those who have not the mauser is pretty much like the blue tones absolutely excellent.
But mostly forgotten of in favor of others the mauser has good velocity good damage good range uh decent magazine capacity and fire rate and no downsides.
Which is quite rare if you haven’t used the mauser for a while or at all for that Matter have a go with it the next time you’re playing because you might just like it in second place.
We have the kokano and in first place we have the mosin and i’m going to go through both of these guns at the same time as they are both fairly comparable and the dynamic between them is that the kokano is slightly easier to use and slightly more versatile.
But also slightly worse at range The kokano has superior recoil control a faster reload and a greater capacity but the mozin nigant has greater muzzle velocity this isn’t to say that the kokano is weak of course the rifle still packs a serious punch more than enough to dispose of anyone.
The kokano
Unfortunate enough to find themselves on the receiving end of this monster but the kokano does lose out slightly and as i’m giving critical reviews on both these guns.
I feel obliged to Point that out it was also worth saying that the mosin nagant is the choice for authentic difficulties is all you ever see anyone using and for good reason as the mosens bullet drop is non-existent.
So in short i feel that for most situations the kokano probably works better than the russian competition but at range which is what these rifles were built for you just can’t beat them again.
