what's going on guys tag today here
quick informative video on the rifles
and the way the hunter so we're gonna
start with the stinger 22 this is your
22lr hunting tier 2
badgers red foxes and the range on it
you know the hit energy range it's
pretty much gonna drop drastically after
a hundred yards so i would shoot
something you know in between zero to
100 yards
next we'll go to the star scout this is
your 223 hunting tier 3. i haven't seen
any tier 3 animals yet but you might be
able to kill kill a deer with this if
you get really close like within 150
yards with it and hit it in a pretty
vital area
we'll go ahead and shoot them for you
way too odd for a 22.
they definitely are going to need to fix
that
all right so next we'll go to grandpa's
old rifle it's pretty much your marlin
30 30 and then we will do the ribbon 10
783 243 oh how did we exit out of that
all right so you're 30 30 this is the
hunting tier 4. i haven't seen any tier
4 animals now these tiers that i of
animals that i haven't seen they could
be on the transylvania map um i've
discovered most the
the animals on the current map i'm on
which is in like the northwest like
idaho or whatever
uh so yeah your 30 30 tier four
you can kill deer with it but they need
to be within 150 yards because the hit
energy drastically drops after that it's
a really good as i said in previous
videos like bush gun i have killed deer
with it so you can do it
all right next the remington 783 this is
your 243 hunting tier 5. this is your
per first
proper deer gun uh range up to 200 yards
with the hit energy
um and pretty reliable rifle it's gonna
get it's gonna get you a lot of kills
and i guess that's why they kind of give
it to you at the start wonderful gun
i guess we're starting i guess we're
starting with it since i called it a
wonderful gun
that's the 243.
it's a reload
beautiful
beautiful bullet models
all right so there is one more 243 that
we'll go ahead and just uh
throw in our inventory here
where is it
this one right here the steyr pro hunter
same statistics as the other 243 pretty
much
a lot louder
definitely a lot louder
all right so let's do our next two guns
which is gonna be the seven millimeter
odd eight the steyer pro hunter two and
then the steyr monoblock
all right so your steyr pro hunter two
is a seven millimeter odd eight
remington hunting tier v you know deer
all those kind of animals this is going
to be a great gun you're going to get
awesome hit energy
the hit energy is going to fall
at 200 yards again but you're going to
have a lot higher hit energy than your
you know the guns before this so
wonderful gun highly recommend it for
maybe your first your next gun purchase
so
next is going to be your best hunting
tier 5
weapon in the game this is a 308 so
you're going to have
very high hit energy and when you have
high hit energy it means you can go do
like double lungs super easy and when
you do a double lung they're either
probably going to run 10 yards or
they're just gonna drop where they stood
so
both wonderful guns probably these are
definitely the best two deer rifles in
the game so if you're trying to knock
down some big mule deer or some you know
big white tail deer these are both
wonderful guns to use
so we'll start with the seven millimeter
beautiful sounding firearms
then this is my personal favorite right
now i love this gun so much
all right so that is our tier five now
we have two tier six guns and they are
drastically different than each other
and we're about to go into why where are
they
i need to find
[Music]
that one the steyr sm-12
and the
330 oh okay
i guess we'll put this one here all
right so the steyr sm12 this is a 300
win mag tier vi
uh tier six your bears your elk
um
i don't think no mountain go is tier
five but yeah your tier six animals this
is going to knock them down um now with
the steyr
sm12
hit energy is gonna start falling again
at 200 yards but it's gonna have a lot
higher hit energy so you can go a little
further
so the next one is going to be the steyr
carbon cl2 this is your 338 lapua
tier 6 obviously so the big deal with
this gun and i see a lot of people
getting excited about it and really want
it and it's also cheaper than a
monoblock
this rifle if you hit anything within
pretty much 800 yards
it's gonna completely destroy the me and
it's an unethical hunt i mean you could
probably go a little bit closer to 800
yards maybe 700
but from what the test that i did and
looking at the head energy from that
yardage
really it like
it it's like perfect at 800 yards so
this is really for the guys who want to
go out there up in the mountains and get
kills from very long ranges away
so yeah
go ahead and shoot them for you oh
that's an invisible gun very nice
and here is the 338 lapua
i'll show you guys what i mean with the
energy with this thing
so that's like
262 yards and you have a hit energy of
like 5600 that's
pretty pretty darn high
kicks a lot
obviously it's 3 30 we'll pull it
and guys i think that is all of our
weapons
at least for the rifles yeah
um not really gonna go over the shotguns
uh personally in my opinion the shotguns
are pretty lacking in this game right
now but
anyways guys i hope you liked the video
i hope this was informative for you i
know i've been seeing a lot of people
not knowing which guns to use for what
so i hope this i hope this helps you a
lot

video be sure to hit the like button
