Anti-Materiel Rifle (Fallout: New Vegas)

The anti-material rifle is a weapon in Fallout: New Vegas.

Characteristics
The anti-material rifle is a bolt-action high caliber rifle using box magazines. Though its action is more like manually cycling a semi automatic weapon in that the player only pulls the bolt back instead of the standard up, back, forward, down of most bolt actions. You can fit it with a custom bolt to decrease cycling time.

The rifle has a slow rate of fire resulting in a DPS of 54(at max "CND"). Off-setting this low DPS is its high damage and very low spread. Even at high levels the rifle's high damage makes it possible to kill most enemies up to super mutants in a single round, without a sneak or critical bonus.

You'll need a strength of 8 and a guns skill of 100 to use this rifle with optimal performance. This weapon is commonly found after level 14.

Locations

 * The anti-material rifle can be bought from any of the gun dealers found in the Mojave, specifically The Gun Runners
 * The Gun Runner's kiosk has several rifles on display, including an Anti-Materiel rifle. However, its sealed walls prevents the player from pilfering them, and they are not guaranteed to appear in the sales inventory.
 * NCR Ranger Veterans often use them as their primary weapon. A source of Ranger Vets is Ranger Station Delta, southwest of Hoover Dam.
