This is the Sniper Rifle of the game. Take aim with the Iron Sights and Booker will look through the scope. This is best at distance so you can simply blast your target away with a a shot. This is not a great weapon at close range. It is something you want to use when you find it but that is it. This is not a great game for trying to snipe unless you are exceptionally good at it (and have gotten the Rate of Fire increase).
Barnstormer RPG
Minimum Damage: 1250 Upgrades:
Maximum Damage: 1750 Damage Boost 1: $385: +25% Damage (Hall of Heroes)

When you want something to go boom, this is your weapon. The round itself is slow moving, for something fired, but it will destroy several weaker enemies in a blast or kill one big enemy quickly. Whenever possible try to fire it at a distance against unaware enemies. This will stop Booker from taking any blowback damage. Finding the sweet spot for firing this takes some practice but so worth it against groups of enemies. Do note that it can ignite oil on the ground and works very similiar to the Devil's Kiss Vigor.

Reserve: 72
Think of the Pistol's bigger, buffer brother and you have a good idea of what the Carbine is like. It is a semi-auto rifle. This gives it a good critical so aiming for head shots is encouraged while spraying ammo. As much as possible aim for heads while firing from the hip to watch things drop when doing burst fire. This is a great replacement for either the Pistol or the Machine Gun.
