Note: this page covers the Standalone version of DayZ; for information on the Mod, see Mod:DMR.
The DMR is an extremely rare marksman rifle in DayZ. As a late-game firearm, the DMR is chambered in .308 WIN Rounds. The DMR is found in helicopter crash sites and military convoys. Much like its iconic presence in the original Arma 2 DayZ mod, it sports olive green fibreglass furniture and Picatinny rails to allow for any western optics to be attached, and is extremely powerful.
As it stands, it is the most powerful weapon in the game, both in terms of how far the bullet holds its damage over distance, and overall health and shock damage, dealing 150 of both. The DMR is capable of knocking out armored players at distances of up to 810m, and will one-shot knock out players at any distance below this, making it better than the LAR in this regard (credits to Wobo on YouTube for this information).
The DMR is by far the most powerful weapon in the game, outclassing even the SVD and LAR, weapons sought after for being arguably the best guns in the game for quite some time. Pound for pound, it boasts the best overall statistics of any weapon in the game and, as a result, proves deadly even in the hands of a moderately skilled player, as all it takes is one bullet to knock you out.[1]
