Becoming a successful Battle Royale player isn’t easy: aside from your shooting and stealth skills, every piece of gear, armory, and weapon in your inventory determines your fate in the multiplayer world. If you’re a Pubg player who uses the same weapon in every situation, be it close combat or long-range shooting, you may not have enjoyed as many chicken dinners as your fellow players, who kept swapping weapons in every different position.

When you’re in close quarters combat amidst a hail of intense firefights, pistols and machine guns are your best bet to take down the enemy before they do, timing is everything here. However, when sniping from a distance, using an SMG is pointless as the range of the fire decreases with distance, and the volume of the sound it produces will blow your cover away. This is where snipers and Bolt Action Rifles in PUBG come in handy.

Bolt Action Rifles are long-range, high-accuracy rifles that can take you out in one shot. But this comes at a price: reloading this rifle takes time, so it is sheer madness to engage your enemy in close combat. This rifle is best suited for long-range stealth attacks (700-800 m) from a house or a high place.

Pubg lets you use 3 types of bolt action rifles – the M24, the AWM and the Kar98K which can be found in all 4 maps of Pubg but with different rarity levels. Here’s how to find them and what bullets you need for them –
