The best story mission for payout seems to be "Where your morals lead you". It's the one at Mananita post where the encourage you to use a bow for stealth kills. For best stranger mission, the "On the hunt" missions always seem to have the best payout.

I use regular ammo and never use consumables. I want to maximize profit.

Hunt in Lemoyne near St Denis. Gators are easy kills and pay ok. Lots of exotic birds as well.

100 % bud ! I am guilty of using express in there but it's short lived and we have to come out after 4 or 5 matches and refill.

A waste of resources imo. I don't even like to use express or high velocity ammo because you can't replace it in between matches, only regular ammo. I only use explosive ammo when defending myself against other players in free roam or player assassination missions and maybe explosive shotgun slugs during on the hunt missions.

Yeah..... Better quality pelts make more money but like you I prefer quantity over quality. I find herds of deer, etc. and then go to town. ....shooting as many as possible. I'll also take the better quality ones and put the whole carcasses on the back or the sides for those small game. When the meat fills up in my inventory, I stop hunting that particular animal and go for the next. Like when hunting deer, I don't keep collecting pelts when I can no longer harvest the meat. I'll switch to birds until the same thing happens with them. .....then go to the market, cash out and do it all over again. Also, hunting spots are important. There are some areas that you can farm by simply riding back and forth through them. ....and if they are less frequented by other players, that's a bonus since you will have fewer interruptions.

I have found though 3 star pelts are wrth more kill absolutely everything quantity over quality makes you much more money a 2 hour hunting trip with herb picking makes me around a 200 dollar trip for me. Though I cant speak for everyone thats what I do and it works.

Why would the new roles even cost anything? I didn't get that impression at all. As for the purchase of things within the activities (if required), I'll wager that these will be in cash or both. I don't see R* locking progress like that exclusively behind a pay wall. As far as earning cash, I've never really had too much of an issue. IMO, it's never been too difficult to earn money through hunting or just playing missions, etc. to buy what I needed. .....then again, I don't waste it either on frivolous stuff. I usually keep around $1,000 on me and try to maintain that balance so I have enough cash for things I need as they come. .....but you do have to grind for it. On the other hand, I've been surprised how much I can earn when I just forget about it and play a bunch of missions / activities over a few sessions.

Thats probly gonna happen in the future (another oportunity for the publisher to capitalize on those Gold store purchases) but I wouldnt say allready in this late summer update (late Aug or Sept is my guess). Wanna get more cash? Hunt like crazy and get those headshots (but first check if its a 3 star animal) and use Varmint rifle and bow for smaller game. I know thats how I got to where I am now 😎

You take care now
