In Survival mode , the hunting rifle degrades 1. When the rifle is at full condition, 75 shots can be taken before it degrades to broken. The hunting rifle can be cleaned to restore condition and increase the number of total shots that can be taken.
If the player obtains a level 5 Rifle Firearm skill, the hunting rifle degrades 0. When the rifle is at full condition, shots can be taken before it degrades to broken.
In Story mode , the hunting rifle degrades 0. The player cannot increase or decrease the degradation rate of the hunting rifle in Story mode, even through extensive training or practice. The hunting rifle is an aimable tool used to fire rifle rounds at targets. The high velocity rounds travel in a straight line and can cause massive internal injuries to the first object they encounter, potentially killing animals instantly.
If the round fails to cause internal injuries sufficient enough to kill instantly, the round will still result a bleeding wound that will kill the animal eventually.
The rifle has a maximum range of approximately 50 paces. Targets beyond the maximum range cannot be hit. Hitting a fleshy target will produce a blood spray effect. Wildlife bears, deer and wolves have hit spots with a bleed out time. As with other loot items, the hunting rifle will randomly spawn in different locations on different play-throughs and difficulties, altough a few maps have a guaranteed rifle spawn separate from the random spawn.
Each major map is guaranteed to have at least one rifle spawn in it, except on Interloper where none will spawn. The Long Dark Wiki Explore. The Long Dark. I am including the venerable which is almost always found in a lever-action rifle and always uses flat point bullets in a tube magazine. A number of interesting new short magnum calibers have been introduced. If you have one, or are looking at one, check the available ammunition. Choose a heavy bullet for better down range performance.
Long-range shooting at over yards is a specialty that requires special equipment and a lot of practice. Using light-weight bullets at over yards for quartering shots is not recommended. If you start with a grain bullet, it may shed half of its weight and much of its velocity in the bones and muscle of an elk.
Then you still need to penetrate and destroy the lung and heart tissue. A bullet that works well on deer is facing much heavier bone and more tissue when it is penetrating an elk.
I am not including performance data on the full-length magnum calibers, they have sufficient power at any range that you can accurately shoot with heavy bullets. The magnum calibers offer much more velocity with the heavier bullets. That's our old nemesis, the Flinch. A lightweight magnum rifle delivers a heavy hit in both directions. A quality recoil pad can help reduce felt recoil by up to 50 percent and a good muzzle brake is very effective in reducing felt recoil also.
On the plus side, magnum calibers do provide extended range and more knock-down power. But if you opt for a magnum, you may need to think about your bullet. Any time you have a cartridge that is traveling near to or over 3, feet per second, a controlled expansion bullet is a good choice. Major ammunition companies now offer controlled expansion cartridges in almost all calibers.
As for the cost - it's well worth the extra money. You have made a significant investment in time and money to get into position for the shot. In your sights is a thick-skinned, heavy-boned, large game animal.
It doesn't make sense to skimp now. This slogan has been in use for a long time, because it is how ethical hunters have always hunted. Most of the cartridges out there can outperform our ability to shoot accurately. This is where it all comes together.
The idea is to hit accurately with enough energy to do the job. The first order of business is to know your rifle. That means sight in your rifle before you go hunting and become comfortable shooting it. Most hunters zero their rifles in for yards, that is, the range where your bullets should hit the center of the target.
For most calibers, a yard zero will put you 1. I checked the web sites of three major ammunition companies and they all offer the zeroing information you need. A word about bore sighting: Most gun shops will bore-sight your rifle, but bore sighting only gets you on the paper target. Bore sighting is never a substitute for time at the range. It's a recipe for a missed shot or a wounded animal. On the bench at the range, you should strive to shoot three- or five-shot groups under 2 inches in diameter at yards.
I recommend setting your scope at the 3- or 4-power setting. Higher settings magnify the slightest movement and you will tend to chase the holes you are making in the target. The most common problems I see with rifle accuracy start with the scope.
Over time, heating and cooling of the rifle due to weather and the repeated shock from shooting cause scope base screws to come loose. Before each season, it's a good idea to check those base screws or take it to a gunsmith to have it checked. When you're at the bench, hold the rifle across your body, not perpendicular to it.
Hold the stock firmly against the cup of your shoulder. If you hold the rifle away from your shoulder, it allows the rifle to slam back into your shoulder, like a punch, magnifying the recoil. Now you have your rifle bench-sighted, but do you know your maximum range in the field? You should be able to shoot six-inch groups at your maximum range in conditions that duplicate what you will face in the field.
When you have a large elk yards out in front of you, adrenalin will become a factor. Your accuracy will drop off some. The personal standard I have for myself with hunting rifles is the milk jug test.
I take a 1 gallon milk jug full of water and place it down range. If I can hit it on the first shot every time from one of the shooting positions not from the bench with sufficient energy, that is a range I can hunt at. Please pick up after yourself. If you're a deer hunter, you've probably spent time in a tree stand. Very few elk hunters use tree stands because of the amount of open ground elk cover. Most elk hunters will use the spot and stalk method.
Expect to spend a great deal of energy covering terrain and glassing large expanses of habitat. Often when you spot elk, they will be a mile or more away. ARs all have pistol grips, and many have flash suppressors that disperse gases coming out of the barrel as well as bayonet mounts and folding stocks so they can be used in tight quarters -- all of which contribute to the military look and feel of the rifle.
By far the biggest difference between traditional hunting style rifles and assault-style rifles is the clip, or magazine, that holds the bullets to be fed into the rifle's action. Where hunting rifles may have a three- or maybe five-bullet capacity, ARs can handle clips that hold 30 or more bullets, allowing the shooter to keep firing as fast as he or she can pull the trigger without stopping to reload.
A push is expected in Washington to limit magazine capacity as an effort to reduce the sheer number of shots assailants can fire without stopping. News Hunting rifle vs. AR-style: similar guns, more bullets Gun supporters note that there isn't much difference between Grandpa's deer-hunting rifle and modern AR-style weapons. And a
