Overview

FakeFish founder Aku Jauhiainen used the Bolt-Action Rifle to explain Frostrail's weapon progression and modular parts. The current official Steam gallery goes further: its Assembly Station screen names the rifle, shows a stock slot, lists three stock choices, displays assembly materials, and exposes the captured build's weapon statistics.

All values below are transcribed from that official image. They are authoritative evidence for the pictured pre-release build, but not guaranteed Early Access balance.

Interpretation & data limits

A single screenshot is enough to document the displayed stats and recipe, but not enough to rank the rifle against other guns or prescribe an optimal build. Ammo type, reload duration in seconds, rarity, range, durability loss per shot, headshot multiplier, critical behavior, and stock comparison values remain unverified.

  • Treat 27.0 as screenshot projectile damage, not a final launch value
  • Treat 5 as clip size; the ammo type is not shown
  • Do not convert modifier percentages into timing or recoil behavior without a playable build
  • Retain this page's pre-release label after future balance changes
