Mosin 7.62x54R bolt-action rifle (Sniper)
How It Plays
The Mosin is Tarkov folklore: a dirt-cheap bolt-action firing full-power 7.62x54R that deletes mid-tier armor with one well-placed shot. It made the one-tap-chest budget sniper a permanent part of the meta. Slow, clunky, and utterly lethal in patient hands.
The budget one-shot rifle. Maximum threat per rouble in the game.
