Overview
A high powered, highly accurate, long range rifle.
You pick up the bolt when the fight happens at a distance the other player cannot answer. Watching a monument from a hill, covering teammates while they loot, catching someone farming on the beach: one clean headshot and the fight is mostly over.
It takes every kind of 5.56, but HV rounds are the obvious load because they arrive fastest. Put an 8x scope on top for real range, and keep in mind that scopes add recoil. A lasersight removes most of the sway, which matters more than people think when you hold aim on a target for a long time.
Watch out
Do not take it into a base fight. A small magazine, a slow bolt and a long reload mean anyone who reaches you with a shotgun or SMG wins. Carry a sidearm.
Like the AK, it needs a Level 3 workbench, and you can research it. The L96 reaches further but only comes from loot, so for most groups the bolt is the sniper they can keep rebuilding.
