Repeater
Otherwise known as the Winchester Rifle, but not to be confused with the Winchester M70 Tundra, the Repeater fires .357 rounds. The Repeater requires you to cock the firearm each time you fire this gun.
Sawed off BK 18

DayZ Rifle Category
Halfway to a Sniper Rifle, but better than a melee weapon. Rifles are a good mid-game firearm that you replace quickly when you get military tier loot. While Rifles in DayZ do appear to perform like Sniper Rifles in some areas, they lack the damage, range and zeroing of long range guns. The line between what is a Rifle and what is a Sniper Rifle is very thin in DayZ and may change over time due to the addition of Weapon Attachments.
A rifle is a kind of gun that is made for long-distance accuracy shooting. Typically, they have a long barrel and a stock or handle that lets the shooter hold the gun steadily while pointing.
A rifle's defining features are as follows:
Long barrel: Compared to other types of weaponry, rifles feature a long barrel that promotes greater accuracy and a wider effective range. Rifles have a stock or grip that the shooter can use to hold the weapon steady while aiming. This lessens recoil and enhances precision.
Cartridges for rifles: Rifles often fire cartridges for rifles, like the.223 Remington or.308 Winchester. These cartridges have a stronger stopping force and a longer useful range than pistol cartridges because they are larger and more powerful.
Selective fire: Rifles can fire automatically or semi-automatically (one round per trigger pull) (multiple rounds per trigger pull). This enables the shooter to select the shooting mode that is best for the circumstance.
Rifles can have a variety of action types, including bolt-action, semi-automatic, and automatic. Semi-automatic rifles fire one round each trigger pull, whereas automatic rifles shoot multiple rounds per trigger pull. Bolt-action rifles need manually cycling the bolt after each shot.
Rifles are uniquely adapted for long-range shooting and precision compared to other types of weaponry because of their long barrels, stocks or grips, usage of rifle cartridges, and selective firing modes. They are frequently employed by hunters, target shooters, military personnel, and lawbreakers alike in long-range combat.
It's important to remember that there are various rifle varieties, including hunting rifles, precision rifles, and war rifles, each of which has unique qualities, features, and purposes.
