It has a magazine size of 20 bullets, resulting in six 3-round bursts and one 2-round burst. With a full supply of ammo, it can reload 12 times + its initial magazine.

Perk Synergies
- The Commando's level 5 skill High Capacity Mags and level 20 skill Eat Lead gives it an additional 10, 20, or 30 (if you use both skills) bullets at the start of the round, slightly reducing the pressure to conserve ammo.
- The Commando's level 10 skill Fallback is an easy assurance of making sure the low capacity of the Varmint Rifle doesn't hinder you too much; the quick weapon swapping and the higher damage for the 9mm Pistol and Knife helps keep ZEDs at bay until you can reload the Varmint Rifle.
Strategy
A simple weapon for a simple perk. One headshot will decapitate most basic enemies - Stalkers, Crawlers, and all Clot variants. Gorefasts may take 1 or 2 headshots before going down.
Use in semi-auto mode often; with enough practice, you can fire as fast as its 3-round bursts, if not faster. Additionally, it saves ammo as you don't waste 2 bullets headshotting a Clot. However, its small magazine size will be a hindrance in sustained firepower, so don't fire randomly into a horde hoping to take down as many as you can.
