Tips and Tricks
This is probably the worst gun, not just the worst Sniper Rifle, in the game. It only does kinetic damage, it's incredibly weak compared to other sniper rifles, you barely have two clips of ammo, the mulligan perk is useless on it as the zoom is so high you'll most likely miss the precision spot not the target itself and even if you did it's only a 5% chance you'll get it back. If it was like any bolt action rifle in any game it would be great as they usally do extreme damage so the low ammo and low speed would make sense but sadly it just doesn't so it's just not useful in PVE at all. That beging said the weapon is beautiful and fun to use maybe because it's a WW2 rifle in a sci fi game or that it takes a great deal of skill to use effectively so it's quite rewarding when you get a kill but as its so slow to fire, with so little ammo and so weak the fun wears of quick and it will be gathering dust in your vault if you have room that is
The rifle is bolt action so it is a slow firing weapon.
It uses iron sights but zooms in very far with a full view as there is no scope
A very small red dot appears on the iron sight when over a precision point
It holds 6 rounds in the clip and only 6 in reserve and additional 3 with a Sniper Ammo Armour Perk so the max is 15 rounds. Usally only about 3-5 rounds are picked up from normal primary wepaon drops
It's considerably weaker than a standard legendary sniper rifle like the vanguard LDR 5001 for example when hitting a Vex Goblin core the LDR will do about 4k the No Land will do about 2.3k
The precision damage perk does not stack it resets after the second kill
The increase in damage from the perk isn't much it only increases a few hundred points. It only really helps with a head shot on a shielded enemy
As its so weak, slow and has so little ammo its more of a novelty as you can't kill a Wizard or a Fallen Ultra/Major with one head shot like with other rifles. Precision points are obvious a tiny red dot doesn't help especially on the Hive which can be red. The zoom is very powerful but in some cases if you're to far away ammo doesn't drop from enemies. This only happened once in the OWT in Buried City on Mars as you normally can't shoot that far as the enemy wont appear if you're too far away. For example on the Moon on the Hellmouth entrance the Fallen on the otherside will disappear/can be invisible so it's very difficult to hit them.
Trivia
Credit to user Prime Derektive from the Bungie forums:
Not sure if this has been mentioned at all, but if you've seen Enemy at the Gates or have a passing interest in Russian history during WW2, you'd know Zaytsev was their greatest sniper.
On the Grimoire card for NLB it says "Rumors of this weapon's existence sent many a Guardian clawing through the corners of Old Russia, seeking its legend. Some believe its origins predate the Golden Age and served to liberate the old Earth nation from a terrible cycle of war."
On Zaytsev's monument in Volgograd his most famous quote is etched, "For us there was no land beyond the Volga".
