NOTE: THIS IS PRE ALPHA LOTS WILL CHANGE BY THE BETA EVEN. the data was taken from the new enemy hit HUD function that puts how much damage your shots do on the HUD. Several sources of gameplay were watched and some data is incomplete. Some errors will occur but have little margin of error.

Bolt actions damage is 80-??

Semi autos vary a bit  
Mondragon: 38-35  
Cei Rigotti 6.5x52mm 38-28  
M1907 winchester carbine 38-22  
Some inequity exists in the semi autos and hopefully more is balanced

M1911 36-12  
C96 carbine 25-14  
MP18 24-13  
Automatico18 21-??

the machine guns are quite underwhelming. Fortunately this is pre alpha so lots will change  
Hotchkiss m1909 22-16  
Madsen MG 22-16  
Lewis gun 22-16

Trench gun 1 shot kills up close doesnt need damage count

The sniper rifle damage models are really wonky, some OHK at close range and some at longer ranges.

There are also body part damage multipliers that can falsify your results as we don’t know those multipliers.

we were told bolt action now have a sweet spot for damage so to far away and to close are weaker than being in the correct range.

I make the loose assumption that different rifles will have different sweet spots so some aggressive bolt actions im guessing work very well at close range but rubbish at distance and some visa versa.
