Out of the 13 base Rifles in the game that players can use to build their kind of long-range gun, there are 5 that stand out as the best and most worth seeking out due to their superior fire rate and effective range as well as a few other important distinctions.
5 Bipbonk
Bipbonk Base Fire Rate - 50/100
Bipbonk Base Accuracy - 95/100
Bipbonk Base Effective Range - 35/100
Bipbonk Base Magazine Size - 18
Bipbonk Base Reload Speed - 40/100
Occupying a strange niche for a standard Rifle, the Bipbonk feels more like an Automatic Rifle than one meant for the usual sniping that comes with a regular Rifle. This gun has a much shorter effective range than many others, however, it possesses a higher than average fire rate. While it may just be more worthwhile to use an Automatic Rifle instead of the Bipbonk, those seeking such an arm with nearly perfect accuracy can make great use of this gun.
4 Extermino
Extermino Base Fire Rate - 15/100
Extermino Base Accuracy - 95/100
Extermino Base Effective Range - 50/100
Extermino Base Magazine Size - 36
Extermino Base Reload Speed - 65/100
In a very different role comes the Extermino, which is a base Rifle that feels much more like what one would expect from this weapon class. The low fire rate is not much of an issue when sniping foes from a decent spot, and the typically high accuracy of this Rifle and its nice effective range grant the player prime tools to dismantle enemies from afar. The Extermino also possesses a large magazine size and swift reload speed, for some reason, which are both strange yet welcome conveniences.
3 Terrortufs
Terrortufs Base Fire Rate - 40/100
Terrortufs Base Accuracy - 95/100
Terrortufs Base Effective Range - 50/100
Terrortufs Base Magazine Size - 18
Terrortufs Base Reload Speed - 40/100

The Terrortufs is a solid base Rifle for one seeking a generalist medium and long-range firearm. A moderately fast fire rate and decently far effective range can let this gun become anything the player wants by attaching a few specific add-ons. Its stats are pretty close to the Extermino, although, the magazine size and reload speed and noticeably lower and its fire rate much higher.
2 Infernaly
Infernaly Base Fire Rate - 95/100
Infernaly Base Accuracy - 40/100
Infernaly Base Effective Range - 45/100
Infernaly Base Magazine Size - 18
Infernaly Base Reload Speed - 40/100
With a much shorter effective range and way less accuracy than the average Rifle, the Infernaly initially seems like a gun base to pass on, however, it has one of the highest fire rates of any Rifle. Once again, this trait crosses into Automatic Rifle territory, even more so than the Bipbonk, but can still make for a stellar weapon thanks to the huge value of its stats.
On top of this, it is also one of the only two Rifles that possesses noteworthy armor-piercing potential, making it even more capable of taking down targets. If more accuracy and range are needed, players can always attach a few add-ons that grant such boons, or, instead, they can simply find the best Rifle base in the game.
1 Oxymastodont
Oxymastodont Base Fire Rate - 95/100
Oxymastodont Base Accuracy - 75/100
Oxymastodont Base Effective Range - 80/100
Oxymastodont Base Magazine Size - 6
Oxymastodont Base Reload Speed - 85/100
Also possessing an incredibly fast fire rate and equally penetrating shots is the Oxymastodont. However, this Rifle base is not lacking in accuracy or effective range due to the Oxymastodont’s overpowered stat spread. This gun is simply the best in every category that a Rifle can possibly be good at with the exception of its very small magazine size.
Thankfully, this one flaw is offset by the firearms ridiculously fast reload speed for a weapon base that can result in one of the most outright broken ranged weapons in the game.
