The Hunting rifle is a long range bolt-action rifle. It uses a clip with a capacity of 5 rounds .308 Round. The weapon has a large range, a long recoil delay, high critical chance and deals high damage compared to other weapons, but it takes some practise (aiming skill). The weapon is very loud and will attract nearby zombies in a large area.

The rifle is also closely related to the smaller caliber varmint rifle, which has lower maximum & minimum damage and lower critical chance, but has lower recoil delay and higher hit chance.

You can also modify the weapon with 8 types of modifications.

The hunting rifle along with the varmint rifle can be found in the gun shop (above Twiggy's) in West Point.

Reloading

Reloading difficulty can be set to either Easy, Normal, or Hardcore.

Hardcore mode

• 2x Scope

• Sling
• Ammo strap
• Recoil pad
• Fiberglass stock

They can all be added to the rifle using a screwdriver.
