With a range of 36.9 tiles, the bolt-action rifle has extremely good range - the 2nd highest in the game, only beaten by an actual [[sniper rifle]]. It also has great accuracy, even beating the [[charge lance]]. In addition, the bolt-action rifle is able to stagger [[human]]s, [[cougar]]s, and all [[insectoids]]. This makes it great as a hunting weapon, for field engagements (e.g. attacking siege camps), or as a general support weapon.

The bolt-action rifle has great accuracy, even beating the [[charge lance]]. Only the [[pump shotgun]] is more accurate, and it only has a range of 16 tiles. In contrast, the rifle has a very good maximum range of 36.9 tiles, itself only beaten by an actual [[sniper rifle]]. It can also stagger [[human]]s, [[cougar]]s, and all [[insectoids]]. This makes it great as a hunting weapon, for field engagements (e.g. attacking siege camps), or as a general support weapon.

However, the bolt-action rifle performs poorly in close ranges. In close quarters, it is easily outclassed by the likes of the [[revolver]] and [[autopistol]], let alone any sort of burst-fire weapon.

However, the bolt-action rifle has a fairly poor close accuracy. In close quarters, it is easily outclassed by by the likes of the [[revolver]] and [[autopistol]], let alone burst-fire weapons. Because it's most effective at a distance, a competent shooter is required to get the most use out of this weapon.
  
−
Because this gun is most effective at a distance, a competent shooter is required to get the most use out of it. This is because a pawn's own [[Shooting Accuracy]], which is in part dependent on [[Shooting]] skill, is more important when the target is further away. For example, a baseline Shooting 0 pawn has a ×{{%|0.89^30 round 2}} multiplier on their real chance to hit a target 30 tiles away, regardless of the weapon used. A Shooting 8 pawn has ×{{%|0.96^30 round 2}} multiplier from the same distance. With Shooting 0, it wouldn't matter if their ''gun'' had 10% accuracy or 80% accuracy, they'd struggle with hitting anything from 30 tiles.

Against an unarmored human, a bolt-action rifle can kill with 3 hits to the torso, 2 hits to the head or neck, or 1 hit to the brain; cripple or destroy limbs in 2 hits; and destroy eyes and digits with a single hit. It'll generally take around 4 hits (~15.9 seconds average) to incapacitate that human from pain shock.

Overall, the bolt-action rifle is best paired with a careful shooter up to level 13, then with a trigger-happy shooter beyond that point.
