"Used to hunt large animals. Uses powerful specialty shells. "
— Item description

The Hunting Rifle is a very powerful weapon found only in "wild things" scenario of Resident Evil Outbreak File 2. It is owned by Austin Taylor, the Raccoon Zoo's Watchman.

A scopeless bolt-action rifle of magnum caliber, it has a capacity of two .458 Magnum rounds. These bullets shatter on impact, causing a huge amount of damage.

The Hunting Rifle is very effective against bosses at both short and long range. The downsides are its slow firing speed and the rarity of its ammunition.

It is an ideal weapon for taking down the Zombie Elephant, the Male Zombie Lion and the Zombie Alligator. It can also kill the zombie lionesses in one shot, though this usage is not recommended.

The gun can be found inside a locker in the Observation Deck on Easy, Normal, & Hard Difficulty. On Very Hard difficulty, it will be found instead in the Back Alley of the restaurant outside the zoo.
