Don't like the look of it all that much... But it makes it up in terms of power and speed. Reloading animation used to be pretty mediocre, but with the rifle animation revamped it finally got what is deserved. I would rate it excellent but chose good just because the design is kinda ugly.

Love this weapon & the sound but the 30.06 round in game hits skull and that's it ?.
As you can see from the real 30-06 Ballistics it should go through the skull and brain and carry on.
Think i'll have to hold the barrel and hit the animals with the butt of the gun i should get a brain kill then.

This was my second purchase after the Blaser. I like the sound, the iron sights aren't too bad and the scope is OK. It cycles fast enough to smoke a whole herd of pigs or deer and the .30-06 hits very hard, similar to .300 Magnum, even out to extended ranges. I found the wobble pretty intense when I started but that has sorted out with levels. It is certainly accurate enough and I still use it. However, I could only give it a 4 due to the iron sights, the 4-8x scope and the weirdo model and tube feeding animation. Why didn't they just include one of these?

This is a very remarkable gun! Great stopping power for its calibre even on longer ranges. Great look! Limited scope.

Besides the camo as well, I LOVE THIS RIFLE! I used it all the time when hunting bear, deer, moose, reindeer, et cetera. It never let me down and dropped every dear I shot right on the spot, it's the traditional style rifle that the store lacks a lot of (I think). It's relatively cheap and it's very good. Recommended!

Excellent gun, only the sight is a bit poo but it gets the job done. Hit them with a poor placed shot in the gut (what should have been the lungs but the hit boxes are a wee mess) with it and they go a lot less than with the .308 for example....
My opinion may not be right, but it is the one I like most :D

Indeed it is one of the best rifles in theHunter. I love it. It knocks down everything that it is ethical to kill with. No way is it a crappy rifle, that is absurd. ;) Peace.
