How to get the weapon

The Bolt Action Rifle is rarer than the Rifle in Roblox Dead Rails. It has a slightly smaller magazine, but makes up for this disadvantage with its high headshot damage and reduced bullet spread.

Here are the places where you can find this elusive weapon:

• Towns, specifically in gunsmiths and stores
• Abandoned buildings
• Outlaw camps
• The armories in forts

The best way to get the Bolt Action Rifle is to raid forts. A maximum of three rifles are guaranteed to appear in the Armory of a Fort Constitution along with their required ammo. This way, you don't have to risk your skin to find the weapon in outlaw camps or buildings swarming with zombies.

Given that it can only be found as loot in Dead Rails, the Bolt Action Rifle cannot be purchased from the Gunsmith. However, you can sell the weapon for $30, which is similar to the sell value of the standard Rifle.

Stats of the weapon

The Bolt-Action Rifle delivers 55 damage per hit. Interestingly, the numbers are doubled during critical hits, meaning it deals a whopping 110 damage when headshotting enemies. You can two-shot vampires and kill werewolves in just a few hits.

A reliable primary weapon due to its effectiveness at all ranges, the Bolt-Action Rifle can hold five rounds, one less compared to the standard Rifle. It has a reload time of 0.5 seconds per bullet while its fire rate is 0.65 seconds. There is little to no screen shake when shooting enemies repeatedly.

Since rifles have a low fire rate, you must have a sidearm for close-distance combat. The Navy Revolver in Dead Rails is a good choice for a secondary weapon because it deals higher damage than the standard Revolver.

Due to its low availability and magazine size, the Bolt-Action Rifle is considered an inferior option compared to the Rifle. However, players who love to snipe enemies must try using this weapon. It can one-shot most enemies, while its high range means that the NPCs will be eliminated before they can get to the user.
