The Bolt Action Rifle is the king of long-range engagements. With a scope attached it deletes targets across the map, and a headshot is a guaranteed kill even through a helmet. It is the counter to AK spray players who try to push open ground.
Where It Shines
On big monuments like Launch Site and the Airfield, the Bolt rewards patience and positioning. Its only weakness is the slow per-shot bolt cycle, so it punishes misses harshly.
