.45 Caliber (Fallout 2)

.45 caliber is a type of ammunition in Fallout 2.

Gameplay
In game terms, the .45 is perfectly average, with no modifiers to damage when used in a weapon. It is a good choice for characters who cannot use submachine gun animation frames. The Tommy gun can be used by Lenny, improving his survival chance and firepower in combat.

.45 bullets are a very nondescript and ineffective type of round, used only by weak Tommy guns and heavy, short-ranged "Grease" guns. Although they lack penalties, they also have no bonuses, like 7.62mm rounds. .45 weapons are also very rare, with only New Reno mobsters carrying Tommy guns and Bishops mercs with "Grease" guns, so shops are about the only place to obtain more.
