Steyr Zephyr II vs Singer 22
I have only seen people using the stinger so far, and I'm assuming that is because:-
1: Cheaper
2: Semi-auto
3: Clip x10

The way I hunt, I am not worried about follow up shots. 1 shot, 1 harvest.
The Steyr Zephyr II is more expensive, there has to be for a reason for that.
Anyone had chance to use both and find out ?

--Stinger costs 900. Zephyr 1,430.--

Look at the bullet ballistics information in the encyclopedia. That's the difference =P.

They both use the same ammo.
I did look through everything I could find to see if I could find anything in game. I knew about the ballistics screen already from streams

damn, that ballistics info is such a useless data. they provide drop at 450m, who cares about the drop if you can zero at any moment? but there's no info on bullet energy & speed & weight, which is kinda super important for weapon selection.

The ballistics needs some work. Going to be interesting to see what happens when more animals and calibers are added. Its definitely not right currently though because according to the game the 338 hits elk to hard at 450 meters which isnt accurate at all. The 338 is a very popular round for anything whitetail and bigger.

Well, over an hour wasted and I have exhausted google and youtube trying to find an answer. I tried discord and asking in twitch streams as well.

Guess I'll head to bed now and hope for better luck tomorrow :/

Can't you compare guns yourself, it's pretty easy? kids these days are so helpless, they want to be guided in literally everything. That's why we have 1000 topics about blood tracking being so hard, while it's the opposite.
For example, cotw wiki says that 20GA Steel Birdshot is just a reskin of standard version, and they are not different. That turned out complete bs, when I took them to the shooting range. Guess what? Steel reaches 100m targets easily, and default one doesn't. So don't look for answers, when you can act yourself.

The only difference I see is one gets the benefits of the bolt action perks while the other gets no perks as there aren't any semi-auto perks.

Iv'e got just enough for 1 or the other.

I was just starting to get on a roll yesterday yesterday with 3 hours straight. Only dropped out to let computer cool down and ask this question. Ended up with me browsing, getting bored and starting to feel tired, when normally I would just be up though-out the night.

Looking at the ballistic graphs, I wonder what that CM on the y axis stand for. Any ideas? I'm not a Firearms expert nor do I have a deeper knowladge about ammunitions. So I'm courios what it means.

If your philosophy is "a shot a dead." Go stinger.
What do you hunt with .22? I ask because I would like to hunt badgers, don't laugh, it's funny. In real life I would use a .22 mag, but in the store it's not there, So I thought about buying the .223 win. But if the .22 can bring down a badger with one shot I would go for that.

Exactly the same reason. If well placed shots and keeping close make the .22 capable of dropping badgers and foxes, then I will use it for tier 1 - 3.
With the Stinger 22 having so many obvious benefits over the Zephyr, there has to be a reason for the Zephyr being over %50 more expensive.
