Source review — 10 November 2026: This is an original-game loadout from the dated guide below. Accessible source pages confirm the listed weapon attachment names.

The Kar98k is the high-level bolt-action in World at War. Popkorne's Steam guide calls it an all-round fantastic weapon because it moves the least while firing and working the bolt. Our verdict is the Sniper Scope. This applies to original 2008 multiplayer.
Best Kar98k loadout
No major guide publishes a build for this gun, so this is our suggested setup from its available attachments. Attachments come from GameRevolution's challenge list (7 December 2010) alone.
| Slot | Pick | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Attachment | Sniper Scope | Steam guide lists 70 damage, 20 starting rounds and large penetration when scoped |
Why this build works
The Steam weapons guide (updated January 2019) says only the Springfield has a faster bolt, and that the Kar98k has the better iron sights of the two. Unscoped damage is 50 to 40 at 48 RPM with medium penetration. The scope lifts damage to 70 and penetration to large. Like the rest of the class, it keeps its damage over range.
How to play it
Use it where you can see the enemy first, since the small movement while firing is what the guide says makes spotting easy. Keep your distance, as bolt-actions have very low hipfire accuracy and long aim times.
Unlock notes
GameRevolution and the Steam guide both list the Kar98k at level 41. The Sniper Scope takes 25 kills.
Other listed attachments: Bayonet (75 kills), Rifle Grenade (150 kills).
