Hunting Rifle

The Ruger Mini-14 hunting rifle is semi-automatic and is arguably the most accurate gun in the game. The only one in game has a scope attachment. It is still mildly accurate without having to use the scope. It is perhaps the most powerful of the second tier weapons. It holds a 15 round magazine with 180 rounds in reserve and has the unique ability to shoot through several enemies at once.

The weapon can be fired fairly quickly, but distance is very key to the weapon. Long hallways and open spaces are where this gun really shines. If enemies get too close, switch to pistols, there is very little reason to keep using the gun for short range. Shotgunners will be your best friends and you kinda of have a pact (hopefully). Keep the infected away from them, and they take care of the infected rushing at you close up.
