Hunting rifle (Fallout 4)

The hunting rifle is a weapon in Fallout 4.

Characteristics
The hunting rifle is a rifle commonly carried by super mutants and raiders, with no mods it looks almost like a two handed pistol and requires a long barrel mod and a full stock mod to be considered a rifle. Great for hunting ghouls, raiders and synthetics. Of special note, it's a left-handed bolt-action rifle. This is unusual as the other Fallout games had right-handed versions.

Variants

 * Becomes 'sniper rifle' when a scope mod is added.
 * Can be chambered for .38, .308, and .50 ammo types.
 * A rare variant (obtained from legendary drops) fires an extra projectile and once upgraded is capable of over 150 dam per shot, making it easily one of the most powerful weapons for the sub level 20 player
 * A rare variant (obtained from a legendary drop) deals double damage if the target is at full health, and combined with stealth bonuses can easily one shot kill most enemies in the game.

Locations

 * Raiders can sometimes carry the weapon, or one of its many variants.
 * The hunting rifle and its variants can be found on super mutants.
