	Hunting Revolver Sniper Rifle -50% zoom reduction ; "Made for a more offensive approach."

The Hunting Revolver is a primary weapon for the Sniper. It is a long-barreled revolving rifle fit with a wooden gun stock, grip, and carrying strap.

The Hunting Revolver deals 40 base damage, has damage ramp-up and falloff, and can shoot 6 times before reloading. Its zoom is halved compared to the Sniper Rifle, allowing for increased visibility while aiming. The Hunting Revolver also cannot charge its shots, and so always deals 120 damage on a headshot regardless of time spent zoomed. In addition, its damage falloff occurs at double the range of most weapons.

Like the Sniper Rifle, the Hunting Revolver needs to zoom in for 0.2 seconds before being able to headshot, and each shot creates a tracer that is visible to all players. It cannot reload while zoomed, and zooming during a reload will cancel it.

Trivia

Before the Death & Taxes update, the Hunting Revolver was known as the Poacher's Pride.
Holding the zoom key while in the air will prevent the Hunting Revolver from playing its reload animation if it hasn't started, and therefore prevent it from reloading.
The Hunting Revolver has the same base damage, damage ramp-up, damage falloff, and clip size as the Spy's Revolver.
