Hunt: Showdown 1896 is a team-based shooter set in 1890s America, where hunters track monsters, claim bounties and fight off rival players. Weapons are how you deal damage to both, so the guns you bring shape every match. The game sorts them into rifles, shotguns, pistols, special weapons and melee, and each type is built for a different kind of fight.

How Weapon Size and Loadout Capacity Work
Every weapon has a size, and your hunter can only carry so much. A hunter has five points of weapon capacity by default, and weapons take anywhere from one to five. A heavy gun can eat most of that, so you have to decide what to leave behind. The Quartermaster trait adds a sixth point, which opens up combinations like three and three, or four and two.
In Bounty Hunt and Bounty Clash, you pick your guns before you spawn, so you know exactly what you're bringing in.
Rifles, Shotguns and Pistols in Hunt: Showdown 1896
Rifles are built for distance, so they're the pick when your target is far off across open ground. Shotguns are the close-range answer, since each shell fires a spread of pellets that works best at short range. That spread is why they shine indoors and in tight fights.
The Shorty versions of shotguns and rifles take less space than their full-length versions, which makes them easier to fit next to a rifle. The LeMat also carries a shotgun barrel you can switch to.
Pistols are your sidearm, the one you fall back on when your main gun is empty or the fight gets close. You can also dual wield two pistols for more shots before you have to reload.
Ammo Types and Custom Loads
Ammo comes in classes: compact, medium, long, special long and shotgun shells, with special weapons using their own. Each class changes how hard a round hits, how fast it flies and how much you can carry. Compact ammo is the easiest to keep topped up, while long and special long rounds hit harder and are harder to restock. Special long ammo can't share rounds with regular long ammo, so plan which guns you pair.
Custom ammo is a set of special loads that change how each round behaves. Some add a lasting effect, like bleeding, burning or poison, which keeps working on a target after the hit. Others trade one strength for another, such as more penetration for less damage per hit.
Special and Melee Weapons
Special weapons don't follow the usual ammo rules, and each one works in its own way. Crossbows load one bolt at a time, while the Bomb Launcher is single-shot and needs each bomb loaded by hand. The Bomb Lance is a bit of both, a heavy melee weapon with an explosive punch.
The melee list includes the Combat Axe, Katana, Railroad Hammer, Machete, Cavalry Saber and Baseball Bat. Each has its own damage and stamina cost for light and heavy attacks, so pick the one that fits how close you like to fight. Melee is also the quiet option for common enemies, since a gunshot carries a long way.
Weapon Stats and Traits That Boost Them
Damage figures are for a hit to the upper body, and shotgun damage assumes the whole spread lands. Muzzle velocity is how fast a round leaves the barrel, so a faster round reaches a moving target sooner and drops less over distance.
Several traits work with a gun's action, meaning how it loads its next round, such as a bolt, lever, pump or single shot. Iron Eye keeps you in the sights between shots on bolt, lever and pump weapons. Levering lets lever-action guns fire faster from the hip, and Fanning does the same for single-action pistols. Fast Fingers speeds up reloads for single-shot rifles by keeping rounds ready in your hand.
How to Unlock Weapons and Variants
Your Bloodline is your progression across every hunter you play. Base weapons unlock as your Bloodline rank rises, and you buy them with Hunt Dollars. Variants with scopes, bayonets, silencers and other changes work differently: you unlock them with Weapon XP earned using that weapon family, and each family's unlocks come in a set order.
Scarce weapons can't be bought with Hunt Dollars at all. You find them in Sealed Weapon Crates during a mission and open them with Pledge Marks.
Death is the main risk. When a hunter dies, the gear it was carrying is lost, so an expensive gun is a bigger loss than a cheap one. Your Bloodline progress stays, though, so the unlocks you've earned aren't wiped out.
Best Weapons to Start With in Hunt: Showdown 1896
There's no single best gun, since the right one depends on the fight you expect. For a first rifle, the Frontier 73C is a common pick because it fires quickly from a decent magazine. Pair it with the Conversion pistol as a sidearm, which packs strong damage for its size.
For close fights and indoor work, the Romero 77 and the Auto-5 are the shotguns to look at. For longer shots, the Mosin-Nagant is a steady pick, and the Vetterli 71 covers the middle ranges.
If you want quiet kills, the Crossbow and Hand Crossbow are the options. The Nitro Express is the heavy hitter, and the Dolch 96 is a premium sidearm that ranks among the strongest pistols.
Pick based on the distance you expect to fight at, and keep a sidearm that covers the range your main gun can't.
FAQ
What is the difference between FMJ and Dumdum ammo?
FMJ, short for full metal jacket, punches through more cover, so it's the pick when enemies hide behind thin walls. Dumdum doesn't penetrate at all, but it causes bleeding, which keeps hurting a hunter after the hit.
Can bullets get through walls and doors in Hunt: Showdown 1896?
Some loads can and some can't. FMJ rounds get through wood and light cover, so they help when a fence or thin wall is in the way, and explosive rounds can break doors and shutters.
What ammo works best against bosses?
It depends on the boss. Incendiary rounds work on the Spider, but the Butcher and Hellborn can't be hurt by fire, and poison does nothing to the Spider or Hellborn, so match your load to the target before you head into the lair.
