BA Bolt

The Balanced bolt is an unlockable ammo type for the XBOW in Battlefield 3

Battlefield 3
"Balanced bolt is a long range, medium damage bolt with almost no drop because of stabilizers on the arrow."

- Battlelog description

The Balanced Bolt, being more aerodynamic due to it being double-feathered, has the most range among the bolt types, but does slightly less damage with its thinly-tipped head, meaning that one-hit kills will only occur on headshots. The BA Bolt is unlocked after completing the assignment Stay Away From My Tent.
