I feel like your using it wrong levelcap, you didn't make use of the straight pull once in that clip. and only used the marksman variant :( m95 is my go to weapon in the game but it's best used with iron sights and making full use of the straight pull so you can use ads and with the fire rate two shot kills is perfectly viable even at close range
Well, every Infantry (Iron Sights) variant rifle in the game can reload while ADS, so the carbine and marksman variants actually have the advantage here over other rifles. But yea, he doesnt make use of it with the scope in this video.
Maybe I'm just deaf and didn't notice you saying it, but the Gewhr M.95 is the only sniper in BF1 that has a straight pull bolt to make it easier to lead targets at longer ranges (this is more than likely why there's no sweet spot). The Gewehr 98 does not have a straight pull.
It doesn't have a staright pull, it is just that the optical sights are different to scopes in that you can stay aimed as you cycle the bolt. Same goes for all carbine varients with the optical sights.
It's literally machanicly and visualy a straight pull rifle and no, out of all mrksman variant rifles this is the only one wich doesn't unscope, making it unique.
It's supposed to still have a straight-pull? I was using the infantry variant earlier and I had to keep dropping my sights because it wasn't readying the next round. My Russian 1895 though, that lets me stay scoped in while I'm shooting. Oh, and it does NOT visually have a straight-pull bolt, it suffers from the same problem as the straight-pull attachment in other battlefield games. A straight-pull bolt lets you just pull the bolt back, you don't need to rotate it; the animation on the M.95 still has you rotating the bolt. If the M.95 actually had a straight-pull then working the bolt would look almost identical to reloading the Cei-Rigotti.
It's still not a bad idea to go after ADS after each shot (or at least after most shots) to see if there's someone getting closer or if there's a better target, etc.
And didn't use it in the gameplay. The thing that makes the 95 so good is incredibly fast follow-up shots without unzooming if you get a body shot. Favorite rifle by far.
yeah :/ pretty frustrating. Although i could see why he forgot about it. Bf1's UI is absolutely terrible and he probably assumes it was a regular pull back just like the rest of snipers. Without actually trying it, he would've never found out.
i can see why too...shit i wouldnt have known if it werent for a different video...all i saw was no sweet spot and I told myself now why on earth would i care about the quicker rate on fire if i still gotta zoom out...dice really has to improve the descriptions 😂
Russian Winchester is better for using in infantry variant, it's still chambers without unscoping, but has better stats and actual sweetspot, second best only to Martini Henry.
Enfield is truly the best one with infantry setting. Had a round on the city map 43-0, survived the whole round, almost solely because of the very short range sweet spot.
Trevor Brosiedon not true at all, the infantry version of the rifles sort of has straight pull, it will pull the bolt without unzooming, but it still unaligns the irons. With the M95 it doesnt move the irons at all.
1. it has a straight pull 2. go infantery, you do not need a scope with this one. At the ranges where you need a scope, you should play another sniper 3. on close to medium range this thing is a god gun, just op. please use it in this way and make another vid. you will see how crazy it is.
because it's the main selling point of the gun. the straight pull allows you to not have to readjust your sights after every shot, since it's a two shot.
Sadly he did not mention the most redeeming feature of this weapon, you can keep aiming down sights for a followup shot without having to go trough the chamber animation. It's the only straight-pull rifle in the game that lets you stay on target.
No, one of its three manufacturers was Steyr, and Steyr later converted them to carbines rechambered in the 8x56R spitzer, but its name is certainly not Steyr. Its name is Infanterie Repetier-Gewehr M.95.
The White Death Build: any Gewehr you would like but with iron sights and byonet frommer stomp (he had smg so need of rate of fire) gadgets: up to you incendiary greanade any melee you want +if you can make all the skins white Hope you pick it!
I really like this rifle. it's fun and challenging. additionally, I really, really dislike the sweet spot mechanic. it makes sniping too easy. you don't need accuracy, you just need to be X distance away. I really loved the infantry one from the beta The reason for the faster fire rate is a straight-pull bolt. what was previously an attachment is now a weapon's selling point.
Worst thing DICE did with this game in my opinion is taking away basically all weapon customisation. My ideal setup is an SMLE with a 6x scope, and I don't see why that is not an option at all.
Even the carbines in tanker class are better than this turd, and you actually has a wrench and AT grenades against vehicles, unlike those puny K-bullets.
Shane Jones I love the Steyr-Hahn M1912 Repetierpistole. It is neither good nor bad, an overall decent pistol, but it is a sexy firearm. It's also great sidearm for my Madsen MG, due to the fact that the Austro-Hungarian military used both in WWI.
My favorite bolt-action rifle would definitely be the Gewehr 98. The sound, the animations, and the overall feel of the weapon made me fall in love with it instantly. Plus the sweet spot is at a good range for when it's too difficult to hit a headshot when the target is moving.
Big Game Safari Hunter: Martini-Henry Infantry No. 3 Revolver HE Tripwire Bomb Spot Flare Sawtooth Knife You are a Safari hunter in the late 1800's and are looking for some trophies to put on your wall. The weapons at your disposal should be sufficient to take out any predator. The Martini is for ranged targets and if they should charge you, whip out the No. 3 to blow them away. And if the revolve isn't enough, the Sawtooth should finish the job. Put down the Tripwire Bomb if they decide the hunter should become the hunted and sneak behind you. To find the Big Game, use the spotting flare. Love your content and have fun with this loadout.
Hey man, I guess you're missing the fact that this rifle is the only one that reloads while you are ads'ing! You don't have to zoom out and can stay on your target while rechambering a round. That's it's main benefit..
Yeah, Levelcap. One of the huge advantages of the marskman variant of this rifle is that you don't need to scope out and scope back in between shots. Two shots back to back without scoping out and a relatively high rate of fire makes up A LOT for the lack of sweet spot. If you're a PTFO scout and you want to play up with your squad this gives you two options. Play agro near the front and soften them up for you squad mates, or play just behind and get one shots on guys who are already down on damage. It also really shines in that 150 to 200 meter range where most of the other short to medium range scouts are outside their sweet spots. Tried going back to the SMLE and got killed because I learned my zone is just a little further out having used the M95 pretty much exclusively (okay, the Martini Henry some too) for a while....
The Infantry and Carbine versions of this rifle is the best close quarter weapons for the scout class. This is because it deals 90 dmg at close range, the two variants has a straight-pull bolt, it has good hip-fire, very fast reload and round re-chambering time.
it is sooo much more effective if you stay scoped in between shots which I think is the main reason for using this rifle. If you don't get a headshot you can easily finish them off, unlike other rifles where you need to scope back in and get your bearings.
I'll say as others have said... This is the only scout rifle in the entire game that has a straight pull bolt! Level should have acknowledged this in the video, but I could tell by the way he was shooting (unscoping every time) that he was clueless.
Love this marksman variant, fire rate with the "straight pull bolt" means that you can get a good follow up shot at medium to long range in case you miss the head shot. I wish it had more spare ammo though
I love using this rifle in the infantry variant. Spot flare, trench binoculars, with various sidearms. Very fun kit to play on Ameins ( if that's the correct spelling) it just feels perfect on that map.
If you are a good shot but not great enough to consistently get headshots, the carbine variant is nice. It's a two shot kill, you don't have to stop aiming after every shot to ready the next round, and your sights stay perfectly on target. It's really good at medium range. Unfortunately, I'm Nora good shot
What I've really enjoyed about the M.95 is that the infantry version allows me to be up closer and actually PTFO and still get some nice distance kills.
Martini Henry+Kolibri= perfect combo. Shoot the martini at an enemy at close range and do 90 damage. Pull out your kolibri and finish them off with 2-3 bullets
+XyerZen The only reason I'm levelling up my scout class is to get the Kolibri. And also because the bolt-actions in this game are incredibly enjoyable to use, but mostly for the Kolibri. I just love getting lots of kills at a disadvantage. skk64's combo sounds like the best trolling combo that actually works. You either use the ridiculously out-of-place elephant gun, or the ridiculously out-of-place midget pistol. We only need a hot pink soldier camo to create a perfect picture.
Just my 2 cents, but i feel like the best "im not sure what range im engaging at" class is medic. They have such an AMAZING balance of close/medium, to medium long range weapons.
I play medic about 75% or more of the time, with the rest support, just because they're helpful to the team/squad and I don't care about a high kill count like most kiddies. The "I'm not sure what range I'm engaging at" is a side benefit, haha. I have no idea how far away someone is... guess I don't play enough? I don't know of anything that measures or lists distance in the game, though.
I have no clue why but in every game that has the 1911 and mosin nagant, I love that setup, I use it all the time. It's actually one way I let people identify me in payday 2. The guy with a 1911 and nagant, blowing away cops
I like that straight pull is a built-in advantage instead of an unlock. It felt underwhelming in Battlefield 4, especially since it didn't even change the bolt action animation, but it's game-changing in BF1
The 95 wrecks in close to mid range when you're playing smart and using spotting flares to fingure out where the enemies are coming from/going to be and positioning yourself at the end of their route. Pair it with a decent sidearm and you can wipe a squad on your own in the same amount of time as you would blindsiding them with a shotgun but you've got a better survival rate for a fallback counterattack with grenades to clean up the pushing attackers. just wanted to share that little bit of info, it's not easy every shot counts but if executed well you can save your team from having to recapture an objective.
Anzac loadout Class: Medic Lee Enfield Rifle 'SMLE' Naked Webley revolver replace with No.3 revolver Naked Standard frag grenade Med pack You are in the front line about to run into the battle totally outgunned than the other hostiles on the battlefield. If you don't want to be in the front line you can support your troops with a mortars. Good luck.
Isn't this the best aggressive recon gun bar the Martini? Rapid fire, rapid reload and a straight pull. Once you've got your aim, you don't have to pull out and set up again so when using iron sights or optics, you're fucking golden.
Managed to get a service star for the infantry variant of this in one day, this thing is a BEAST in close quarters, its the best CQB gun, the Martini Henry may be more viable at close range but the ammo capacity and slow reload makes it bad for CQB situations, overall this is my best scout gun
Been sniping since BF1942, and I have to say, the Ruck-Zuck (german nickname for the M.95) is my favorite rifle. I forget that there even are sweet spots in this game and still do better than most (or so I like to think.)
Best thing about this gun is the straight pull, meaning you don't need to zoom out after every shot in order to load a new bullet in, something which you did not mention or it seems realise seeing as you still zoom out with this gun. Might wanna revise that a lil there level:)
The Hacksaw Ridge Class: Medic Primary: Don't use it Secondary: Don't use it Tool 1: Medic Bag or Pouch Tool 2: Syringe Grenade: Smoke You are not allowed to kill anyone. All you can do is heal and revive your teammates. Try to be top of the leaderboard.
People are complaining everywhere about how LevelCap keeps un-ADSing with the M95, but they it seems like most of them don't realize LevelCap does this as a habit. He's always done this while sniping even when equipped with the straight pull bolt attachment in BF3 and 4 (which he always does).
Maybe they're changing it to actually be balanced. 60 health is so unbalanced that it doesn't make sense to play hardcore seriously. I would play hardcore if it were more like classic mode, but nobody plays classic mode so.
I feel like the most useful feature of the M.95 is the fact you don't have to break your aim on the other player to cycle a round like you have to do with all the other rifles accept the 1903 Experimental.
the M.95 also gets assist counts as kill no matter what on a hitmarker (disregarding the arm glitch). Personally my favorite rifle behind the gewher 98 (like it more than the smiley up close, not as much at medium range).
just realized I have been watching lvl for 3 years & watched the subscriber count almost triple. yet lvl has always been cool & provided quality content to help Shitty players like myself. Thanks LevelCap
Now i wish they would add a swiss k-11, another straight pull rifle. Would be a close range rifle. Straight pull, 12 round magazine and uses slightly underpowered ammunition. And they look wonderfull too. Swiss craftmanship at work. Love Schmidt Rubins!
My favourite handgun is the P08 or the Kolibri Kolibri because kolibri and P08 'cause A: it looks amazing B: quite similar to M1911 C: The recoil is comfortable for me and the gun suits my playstyle. Just though I'd throw that in with Level talking about his M1911
just to say levecap u forgot that this sniper can be continuously fired while staying zoomed in that's one of the main reasons why I like this sniper as I do not really had really good aim it helps me lead my targets while staying zoomed in hope you see this
I like to see this as a two shot rifle for medium range. Magnification at 2.5 and Flank the enemies and focus on a fast second shot if you didn't land that first headshot. Spot flare and set TONS of tripwires
I think you should do a Support Sunday - the Scout class sits in a far better position in this game than in BF4, and more people need to be playing Support.
Magnification is not that of an issue with this weapon since if you're looking for accuracy ot those one-shot kills the range of one-shot kill is low, meaning It"ll provide you with one-shot kills in not long but short distances (
This is not a traditional sniper in BF1, don't run it like one. Run the infantry/carbine one and aggresive scout, with the straigh pull bolt and the fast rpm you can reck anyone in mid range if your accurate.
I just started to play Scout. I noticed I have the legendary skin for this gun, so I thought to check to see what the guns is like. To my surprise I open youtube and there's levelcaps shiny new video! Sadly as a fresh sniper, I don't think this gun is for me right now.
I had since used the M95 for a few ranks in scout. It really grew on me. I think it works better when you're supporting a firing line. Either you soften them up for the team or you're stealing kill from the team. However, still good for two shoting at range.
And we're mentioning the straight pull bolt because it's probably one of the most important parts of this rifle & makes it easier to use you don't have to be "MLG pro"
Why are you scoping out after every shot with a straight pull bolt rifle? Also, you can 1 shot disable plane engines and wings without the k-bullet on any sniper.
I've never got a sweet spot kill, and I play scout quite a bit. I just wish BF1 had a sweet spot tutorial in game on every map so you could get use to it on every map.
thank you for forget to tell one of the most important features,this riffle, is straight pull, so you dont need to zoom out the scope to do the follow shots, thats why to shots 2 per kill is not a problem. but yes you talked about the 1911, like allways
I thought the whole point of the M.95 was the fact you DIDNT need to scope out after every shot. Surprised you didn't mention this
It is! Levelcap dumb sometimes...
Zack Nigogosyan yeah noticed that also xD
Was looking for this comment ))
That's the appeal of the rifle and what should've been the focus of his video
Zack Nigogosyan he doesn't know about sniping he disses the periscope the most important gadget for sniping
you forgot to mention that this is the only bolt action rifle with a straight-pull bolt. which means that you don't have to zoom out for every shot
I feel like your using it wrong levelcap, you didn't make use of the straight pull once in that clip. and only used the marksman variant :(
m95 is my go to weapon in the game but it's best used with iron sights and making full use of the straight pull so you can use ads and with the fire rate two shot kills is perfectly viable even at close range
KB Eightyseven true
KB Eightyseven I noticed that too!!
I was about to comment this.
I was thinking the same thing. The greatest advantage of M.95 is that you dont need to zoom out to load a bullet.
Well, every Infantry (Iron Sights) variant rifle in the game can reload while ADS, so the carbine and marksman variants actually have the advantage here over other rifles. But yea, he doesnt make use of it with the scope in this video.
Maybe I'm just deaf and didn't notice you saying it, but the Gewhr M.95 is the only sniper in BF1 that has a straight pull bolt to make it easier to lead targets at longer ranges (this is more than likely why there's no sweet spot). The Gewehr 98 does not have a straight pull.
D Link I don't know if this works for all carbine variants, but I know the smle mk III carbine has a straight pull as well
every infantry variant has the ability to cycle while still aiming down sights.
It doesn't have a staright pull, it is just that the optical sights are different to scopes in that you can stay aimed as you cycle the bolt. Same goes for all carbine varients with the optical sights.
It's literally machanicly and visualy a straight pull rifle and no, out of all mrksman variant rifles this is the only one wich doesn't unscope, making it unique.
It's supposed to still have a straight-pull? I was using the infantry variant earlier and I had to keep dropping my sights because it wasn't readying the next round.
My Russian 1895 though, that lets me stay scoped in while I'm shooting.
Oh, and it does NOT visually have a straight-pull bolt, it suffers from the same problem as the straight-pull attachment in other battlefield games. A straight-pull bolt lets you just pull the bolt back, you don't need to rotate it; the animation on the M.95 still has you rotating the bolt. If the M.95 actually had a straight-pull then working the bolt would look almost identical to reloading the Cei-Rigotti.
Levelcap... the gun has a straightpull on it....
Thank you, I can't believe this.
It's a habit of his to stop ADSing after taking a shot.
Level you do realize that the m95 has a straight pull bolt, right? you don't have to go out of ADS after each shot.
It's still not a bad idea to go after ADS after each shot (or at least after most shots) to see if there's someone getting closer or if there's a better target, etc.
I have no idea how he could not have mentioned that.... that's the BEST property of the m95, making it in my opinion also the best sniper rifle....
Jorge Corea Yeah, he said in a video a long time ago that he likes to go out of ADS after each shot so he doesn't get tunnel vision
YOU'RE FUCKING A WHITE MALE! Probably force of habit, I usually do it to acquire other targets
I do it intuitively
it kinda irritated me he didnt mention the straight pull bolt ._.
And didn't use it in the gameplay. The thing that makes the 95 so good is incredibly fast follow-up shots without unzooming if you get a body shot. Favorite rifle by far.
yeah :/ pretty frustrating. Although i could see why he forgot about it. Bf1's UI is absolutely terrible and he probably assumes it was a regular pull back just like the rest of snipers. Without actually trying it, he would've never found out.
manni2 plus it's historically accurate
i can see why too...shit i wouldnt have known if it werent for a different video...all i saw was no sweet spot and I told myself now why on earth would i care about the quicker rate on fire if i still gotta zoom out...dice really has to improve the descriptions 😂
In my opinion the best way to use the m95 is the infantry variant. It's so much fun considering it gassing a fast bolt
Russian Winchester is better for using in infantry variant, it's still chambers without unscoping, but has better stats and actual sweetspot, second best only to Martini Henry.
agreed
Enfield is truly the best one with infantry setting. Had a round on the city map 43-0, survived the whole round, almost solely because of the very short range sweet spot.
honestly if you're trying to long range snipe you're doing it wrong. It's infantry/trench or bust for me
The infantry version of this is my 'most kills' weapon. Thing's a beast
Caleb Warren the Lawrence of arabias smle is god
Same here. Feels good to get long range headshots on scouts with scoped guns.
Connah bourton it's exactly the same as the normal smle mk3 infantry lol
absolutely, too bad he isnt talking about how it has strait pull
Trevor Brosiedon not true at all, the infantry version of the rifles sort of has straight pull, it will pull the bolt without unzooming, but it still unaligns the irons. With the M95 it doesnt move the irons at all.
I THink as a Joke Dice should put a Sniper Scope and Baoynet on the Kolibri
Techy Nope. A bipod would be enough.
Techy new C100?
Killer Kuerbis And Why not all 3? Just make it a complete troll, Put it at max level and like a shit ton of Warbonds
Real men use iron sights
1. it has a straight pull
2. go infantery, you do not need a scope with this one. At the ranges where you need a scope, you should play another sniper
3. on close to medium range this thing is a god gun, just op.
please use it in this way and make another vid. you will see how crazy it is.
99% of the comments are about Level not using the Straight Pull Bolt.
because it's the main selling point of the gun. the straight pull allows you to not have to readjust your sights after every shot, since it's a two shot.
you forgot to mention that the M95 acts like a straight pull in BF4, so you dont have to re-ADS everytime you cycle the bolt
The M.95 is amazing in particular the rate of fire and straight pull, my favorite variants are the infantry and carbine
This is my favorite sniper! Usually use irons though.
Man they really need to take out the ability to revive someone whos been headshotted
Sadly he did not mention the most redeeming feature of this weapon, you can keep aiming down sights for a followup shot without having to go trough the chamber animation. It's the only straight-pull rifle in the game that lets you stay on target.
The only downside to this rifle is listening to people try and pronounce its name :)
And we shouldn't because it's name is actually Steyr.
No, one of its three manufacturers was Steyr, and Steyr later converted them to carbines rechambered in the 8x56R spitzer, but its name is certainly not Steyr. Its name is Infanterie Repetier-Gewehr M.95.
Which is pronounced "Repeater-GEH-VEHR M.95. it sounds like gehvehr. It's a V sound. done.
I own one produced by the Austrians. Steyr is much easier to pronounce. lolz
I say and spell it as Goower :)
If your post is telling LevelCap about the m95 having a straight pull bolt, it's already been said, your post isn't gonna inform him any more.
levelcap the m.95 has a straight pull bolt, that's the biggest plus for this weapon
Um you forgot the straight pull bolt, thats one of the best reasons to use this weapon.
The White Death Build:
any Gewehr you would like but with iron sights and byonet
frommer stomp (he had smg so need of rate of fire)
gadgets: up to you
incendiary greanade
any melee you want
+if you can make all the skins white
Hope you pick it!
I really like this rifle. it's fun and challenging. additionally, I really, really dislike the sweet spot mechanic. it makes sniping too easy. you don't need accuracy, you just need to be X distance away. I really loved the infantry one from the beta

Remember me before this comment is lost in the comments
The very Cheeki Breeki Bandit we'll remember you
i will remember
No fuck you
Seven Twelve wtf?
hello brother
This rifle is super fun to run around with iron sights
Worst thing DICE did with this game in my opinion is taking away basically all weapon customisation. My ideal setup is an SMLE with a 6x scope, and I don't see why that is not an option at all.
And I want to remove that ridiculous grip.
TinnedTommy like it or not that's WW1.
UrAveragePlyr Very little about this game is WW1.
TinnedTommy you can change the zoom of the scopes, don't know if 6x is available but you can get close if it isn't
Absolut Pabz the 6x zoom option isn't available to smle because you need the long range scope.
The m1903 experimental is probably the most versatile weapon in the game if you are using k-bullets
Even the carbines in tanker class are better than this turd, and you actually has a wrench and AT grenades against vehicles, unlike those puny K-bullets.
But K-bullets are great! You can completely stop the repair cycle of any vehicle at any distance!
my favorite sidearm: mars automatic. high damage and high capacity magazine make it deadly. It's my go to gun in a gas attack.
Shane Jones Mine is my trusty PO8
Shane Jones dude 1911 masterrace
I'm liking the mars a lot but I can't give up the firerate of my frommer stop.
Rommy for draw speed.
Shane Jones I love the Steyr-Hahn M1912 Repetierpistole. It is neither good nor bad, an overall decent pistol, but it is a sexy firearm. It's also great sidearm for my Madsen MG, due to the fact that the Austro-Hungarian military used both in WWI.
Every day is sniper sunday in BF1..
My favorite bolt-action rifle would definitely be the Gewehr 98. The sound, the animations, and the overall feel of the weapon made me fall in love with it instantly. Plus the sweet spot is at a good range for when it's too difficult to hit a headshot when the target is moving.
The Carbine variant is possibly the second best aggressive sniper (1st is Martini) the RDS and straight pull help a lot.
Big Game Safari Hunter:
Martini-Henry Infantry
No. 3 Revolver
HE Tripwire Bomb
Spot Flare
Sawtooth Knife
You are a Safari hunter in the late 1800's and are looking for some trophies to put on your wall. The weapons at your disposal should be sufficient to take out any predator. The Martini is for ranged targets and if they should charge you, whip out the No. 3 to blow them away. And if the revolve isn't enough, the Sawtooth should finish the job. Put down the Tripwire Bomb if they decide the hunter should become the hunted and sneak behind you. To find the Big Game, use the spotting flare. Love your content and have fun with this loadout.
I actually use the infantry version of this a lot😅
bigman2519 I don't understand why people use the infantry version if you can just use the carbine version instead it gives a better view
More damage per shot my friend thats why
Mortadah Asaad and the red dot sight sucks on snipers tbh it takes up too much of ur view vertical wise
Rookie_J285 HD idk I don't trust the infantry version i miss a lot when using it i think the carbine version in more reliable even at ranges
You can only zero in the carbine to 75m
Hey man, I guess you're missing the fact that this rifle is the only one that reloads while you are ads'ing! You don't have to zoom out and can stay on your target while rechambering a round. That's it's main benefit..
Yeah, Levelcap. One of the huge advantages of the marskman variant of this rifle is that you don't need to scope out and scope back in between shots.

Gewehr M.95 has straight pull bolt
GM.95: Thanks
Levelcap boi: *Proceeds exit ADS after every shot*
GM.95: *THATS NOT HOW IM SUPPOSED TO BE USED!*
Finally a channel with consistent Battlefield 1 vids thx Level Cap
I love using this rifle in the infantry variant. Spot flare, trench binoculars, with various sidearms. Very fun kit to play on Ameins ( if that's the correct spelling) it just feels perfect on that map.
That Flare Gun Kill Was AWESOME!!
If you are a good shot but not great enough to consistently get headshots, the carbine variant is nice. It's a two shot kill, you don't have to stop aiming after every shot to ready the next round, and your sights stay perfectly on target. It's really good at medium range. Unfortunately, I'm Nora good shot
What I've really enjoyed about the M.95 is that the infantry version allows me to be up closer and actually PTFO and still get some nice distance kills.
Martini Henry+Kolibri= perfect combo. Shoot the martini at an enemy at close range and do 90 damage. Pull out your kolibri and finish them off with 2-3 bullets
skk64 stay a little back and you can get into that sweet spot for some e z semi-close range 1 shots
The rommel stopper pulls just as fast....You sheep.
+XyerZen The only reason I'm levelling up my scout class is to get the Kolibri. And also because the bolt-actions in this game are incredibly enjoyable to use, but mostly for the Kolibri. I just love getting lots of kills at a disadvantage.
skk64's combo sounds like the best trolling combo that actually works. You either use the ridiculously out-of-place elephant gun, or the ridiculously out-of-place midget pistol. We only need a hot pink soldier camo to create a perfect picture.
Not sure if you mentioned this, but the m95 also sports a straight pull bolt, allowing you to take shots back to back without scoping out.
The gewehr m.95 with the p-08 pistol side arm absolutely shreds through enemies.
Imo this is the most wicked sounding rifle love the sound it makes when u shoot it
Just my 2 cents, but i feel like the best "im not sure what range im engaging at" class is medic. They have such an AMAZING balance of close/medium, to medium long range weapons.
I play medic about 75% or more of the time, with the rest support, just because they're helpful to the team/squad and I don't care about a high kill count like most kiddies. The "I'm not sure what range I'm engaging at" is a side benefit, haha. I have no idea how far away someone is... guess I don't play enough? I don't know of anything that measures or lists distance in the game, though.
yes, use the mondragon storm and youre good pretty much anywhere
stupid2574 why would i use that when i can use another rifle with 20+rounds and the same 3 shot body kill and a magazine instead of clips?
Drew Russell its close but the mondragon has better dps than the selbslader which I assume youre talking about
I have no clue why but in every game that has the 1911 and mosin nagant, I love that setup, I use it all the time. It's actually one way I let people identify me in payday 2. The guy with a 1911 and nagant, blowing away cops
I like that straight pull is a built-in advantage instead of an unlock. It felt underwhelming in Battlefield 4, especially since it didn't even change the bolt action animation, but it's game-changing in BF1
The 95 wrecks in close to mid range when you're playing smart and using spotting flares to fingure out where the enemies are coming from/going to be and positioning yourself at the end of their route. Pair it with a decent sidearm and you can wipe a squad on your own in the same amount of time as you would blindsiding them with a shotgun but you've got a better survival rate for a fallback counterattack with grenades to clean up the pushing attackers. just wanted to share that little bit of info, it's not easy every shot counts but if executed well you can save your team from having to recapture an objective.
ps if you can adjust the iron sights provide slight aim assist making those mid range headshots a breeze
+cee kay *adjust to the iron sights*
The Gewehr 95 Infantry is the best sniper rifle in the game, easily. The iron sights and target accqusition time are amazing.

You are in the front line about to run into the battle totally outgunned than the other hostiles on the battlefield. If you don't want to be in the front line you can support your troops with a mortars. Good luck.
Every time I witness the beauty of this game I wanna cry.
Isn't this the best aggressive recon gun bar the Martini? Rapid fire, rapid reload and a straight pull. Once you've got your aim, you don't have to pull out and set up again so when using iron sights or optics, you're fucking golden.
Managed to get a service star for the infantry variant of this in one day, this thing is a BEAST in close quarters, its the best CQB gun, the Martini Henry may be more viable at close range but the ammo capacity and slow reload makes it bad for CQB situations, overall this is my best scout gun
Been sniping since BF1942, and I have to say, the Ruck-Zuck (german nickname for the M.95) is my favorite rifle. I forget that there even are sweet spots in this game and still do better than most (or so I like to think.)
Best thing about this gun is the straight pull, meaning you don't need to zoom out after every shot in order to load a new bullet in, something which you did not mention or it seems realise seeing as you still zoom out with this gun. Might wanna revise that a lil there level:)
The Hacksaw Ridge

Secondary: Don't use it

Tool 2: Syringe

You are not allowed to kill anyone. All you can do is heal and revive your teammates. Try to be top of the leaderboard.
The low bullet velocity really throws me off.
Resident Loser sooo true
My most killed weapon is the Martini so I kinda cope with it
Resident Loser you bf1 players are lazy ,in bf4 every sniper has slower velocity . Little COD noobs
naw...think of it like artillery rather than a straight shooter. problem solved. I have quite a few 450+ meter headshots with the M.95.
Sulaimaan Jassat You're quick to judge. Shows how stupid you are. I'll have you know that I have played bf4 before bf1 came out.
I decided very quickly that my favorite is the Gewer 98. Just an awesome rifle. I pretty much always run irons as well.
People are complaining everywhere about how LevelCap keeps un-ADSing with the M95, but they it seems like most of them don't realize LevelCap does this as a habit. He's always done this while sniping even when equipped with the straight pull bolt attachment in BF3 and 4 (which he always does).
i just can't wait for hardcore. It isnt a battlefield without hardcore!
All i want is hardcore mode, They said it would be soon and that was like 3 weeks ago.
Maybe they're changing it to actually be balanced. 60 health is so unbalanced that it doesn't make sense to play hardcore seriously. I would play hardcore if it were more like classic mode, but nobody plays classic mode so.
Hardcore is confirmed to be 100% health and weapons do 200% damage
Ed Tryhardy I think that's worse.. That's pretty much 50 health.
Then don't play hardcore. You either want realism or you don't.
I feel like the most useful feature of the M.95 is the fact you don't have to break your aim on the other player to cycle a round like you have to do with all the other rifles accept the 1903 Experimental.
the M.95 also gets assist counts as kill no matter what on a hitmarker (disregarding the arm glitch). Personally my favorite rifle behind the gewher 98 (like it more than the smiley up close, not as much at medium range).
just realized I have been watching lvl for 3 years & watched the subscriber count almost triple. yet lvl has always been cool & provided quality content to help Shitty players like myself. Thanks LevelCap
Now i wish they would add a swiss k-11, another straight pull rifle. Would be a close range rifle. Straight pull, 12 round magazine and uses slightly underpowered ammunition. And they look wonderfull too. Swiss craftmanship at work. Love Schmidt Rubins!
Thanks for showing your previous origin build it convinced me to get my own, be here next week.
Will have to give it a try.
Love this sniper, the infantry version with iron sights is surprisingly good as well. Only 2 sniper I use
This rifle is basically the highest skill cap weapon for the scout class.
My favourite handgun is the P08 or the Kolibri
Kolibri because kolibri and P08 'cause
A: it looks amazing
B: quite similar to M1911
C: The recoil is comfortable for me and the gun suits my playstyle.
Just though I'd throw that in with Level talking about his M1911
so satisfying watching you snipe
The carbine variant is personally my fave. Capable at long range but still good for close range
just to say levecap u forgot that this sniper can be continuously fired while staying zoomed in that's one of the main reasons why I like this sniper as I do not really had really good aim it helps me lead my targets while staying zoomed in hope you see this
It has a straight pull mechanic level. Use it! This is my favorite sniper because of the straight pull mechanic
I like the Gewher 98. I use the infantry version cuz it's good at medium range and I used the Gewher 98 sniper variant at long range
I like to see this as a two shot rifle for medium range. Magnification at 2.5 and Flank the enemies and focus on a fast second shot if you didn't land that first headshot. Spot flare and set TONS of tripwires
levelcap and matimio are the only battlefield players i watch. keep up the good work level and see you on the battlefield
trenton dove try Westie or JackFrags
I have watched them and i respect them, levelcap and matimio are the first battlefield players i watched.
jackfrags is awesome
I think you should do a Support Sunday - the Scout class sits in a far better position in this game than in BF4, and more people need to be playing Support.
Magnification is not that of an issue with this weapon since if you're looking for accuracy ot those one-shot kills the range of one-shot kill is low, meaning It"ll provide you with one-shot kills in not long but short distances (
Indeed! operations=sniping absolute fun
By far the best rifle in the game for infantry use.
I use the Gewyer infantry with no scope and play aggressively. Works fairly well except for extreme close quarters.
My favorite rifle along with the gewehr 98. I'm all about the gewerhs 🙌🏻
This is not a traditional sniper in BF1, don't run it like one. Run the infantry/carbine one and aggresive scout, with the straigh pull bolt and the fast rpm you can reck anyone in mid range if your accurate.
I just started to play Scout. I noticed I have the legendary skin for this gun, so I thought to check to see what the guns is like. To my surprise I open youtube and there's levelcaps shiny new video!
Sadly as a fresh sniper, I don't think this gun is for me right now.
DirtyWhiteRabbit I'm the opposite.This was the only gun I used until I unlocked the Martini for scout class,since the SMLE didn't click with me.
Mcterry Lesterson for the the russin sniper was awesome but also use this in some situations but this was my first sniper I got used to after the smle
I had since used the M95 for a few ranks in scout. It really grew on me. I think it works better when you're supporting a firing line. Either you soften them up for the team or you're stealing kill from the team. However, still good for two shoting at range.
Go for the head shots, fine by me. I've been using the 1903 for a while but think I might use the M. 95. head shots for days
This gun has been my favorite since the beta. That dirty martini though...
Cant be the only one who loves the infantry variants on sniper rifles more than other variants...
The Mauser 1895 is a classy weapon irl and my favorite weapon in this game
It's a Mannlicher not a Mauser
I love sniper Sundays! Now how about medic Mondays?
And we're mentioning the straight pull bolt because it's probably one of the most important parts of this rifle & makes it easier to use you don't have to be "MLG pro"
Why are you scoping out after every shot with a straight pull bolt rifle? Also, you can 1 shot disable plane engines and wings without the k-bullet on any sniper.
I've never got a sweet spot kill, and I play scout quite a bit. I just wish BF1 had a sweet spot tutorial in game on every map so you could get use to it on every map.
thank you for forget to tell one of the most important features,this riffle, is straight pull, so you dont need to zoom out the scope to do the follow shots, thats why to shots 2 per kill is not a problem. but yes you talked about the 1911, like allways
