Hunting Revolver

The hunting revolver is a pistol in Fallout: New Vegas.

Characteristics
This large single-action revolver fires .45-70 Gov't rounds. It is a good combat pistol for unarmored humans and game, though combating armored targets is usually tough since .45-70 Gov't armor piercing rounds are rare and head shots at range are extremely difficult without a Sneak attack critical to the head. This weapon requires a Strength of 6 or higher to be wielded effectively.

Variants

 * Ranger Sequoia

Locations

 * A hunting revolver is tucked between a corpse and the wall, next to a safe, in one of the second floor locked (easy) storage rooms in the REPCONN Test Site.


 * It can be also be found during The Kings first faction side quest. When you are to hire Orris, you can kill him at anytime during or before the quest and you will still receive your reward.

 * Several hunting revolvers may be found on Great Khan members in Red Rock Canyon.


 * One hunting revolver and 20 rounds of .45-70G ammo can be found in Bloodborne Cave, near the camp fire.


 * Northeast of Neil's Shack by the first bend of the winding path leading towards Black Mountain, located by a gorebag on the cliff.


 * Can always be bought from Gun Runners if you are a high enough level.


 * Several can be found at Camp Golf. Many of the veteran rangers carry them.
