Bolt Action RIfle.... Why?

[Huson]

Isn't the Bolt Action better than the Springfield?  I have a Litchefield now but I am thinking of getting the Bolt Action next.

Springfield has a little more damage, but is slower to fire. The range is better with the bolt action, and they're equally accurate.

 

The difference between them is so slight some people might not even be able to tell.

Game unlocked for me on Friday morning. By Saturday afternoon i had already bought bolt action rifle. Had made over$400 in one day of simply fooling around and doing missions and stranger missions. 

 

I don't understand how people are having problems..

What is the deal with the bolt action rifle? $360 at rank 7? Seriously? Who is going to have $400 at rank 7? Except the people who will be buying gold. Everything else seems priced for the level required and what it is. I'm rank 6 and I only have about $37. Would have made hunting a lot easier.  Guess same can be said with pump shotgun. I smell pay-2-win. 

I bought it instantly when i reached rank 7. 

 

I hunt a lot.

There's like 10 story missions that will give you about $600 the first time you do them, payouts after that point slow to a trickle.

 

Mission payouts are a complete joke, they should be worth doing but what's the point of doing a mission that takes 15-20 minutes and pays $2-5 (with 10-50% of that lost on replenishing your ammo) when I can go down to the chapter 3 camp and catch 10 steelhead trout in about 10-20 minutes and sell them for $4.25 each.

 

Knowing Rockstar, they're more likely to nerf hunting/fishing payouts than improve mission payouts.

You get a bunch of money doing story missions. I had like $700 at level 12. Anyway, you don't NEED the rifle for hunting, you can simply lasso animals and knife them.

I tell those gators to cooperate with my lasso.  Thanks.

I do..., i hunt a lot but im not gonna buy it, saving up for the springfield with long scope.

Not sure yet wich repeater im gonna buy still thinkin on that, and i do want the double barrel shotgun.

At first i was gonna buy the litchfiel but the lancaster got a much faster fire rate so dunno yet.

Really keep hoping and praying for private servers/sessions.

I’ve just hit level 18 and am packing the Litchfield Repeater, Pump Action, Bolt Action Rifle and Volcanic Pistol. I don’t need to grind for another weapon now. I’ve got the high roller revolver for when I get a second holster but will probably just grab a second volcanic.

Granted, I did get the Ultimate Edition but that’s how I show R* my support. I’ve never bought in game currency and never will.

Having said all that however, if I hadn’t purchased the UE, I’d be right there with everyone else screaming at how obscene some of the prices are.

The only weapon I had to grind for was the Litchfield, I bought the Bolt Action after I completed the story and had change.

Now I can buy stoopid stuff at my leisure like overpriced upgrades and whiskey.

Where do you get the second holster? I remember seeing it somewhere but I can't remember where and it doesn't appear to be in the General Store.

My problem with Bolt Action Rifle. It reloads 2 rounds instead of 5 at some times. Anyone else experience?

I've seen that too, but I thought it was because I was desperately trying to fire off another shot as quickly as possible. So it loaded 2 'pity' rounds before letting me fire them off. I think every time I've done a proper reload and let it finish I've gotten the full 5 clip.

its because you are aiming.
