Victory Rifle (Fallout 3)

The Victory Rifle appears in Fallout 3 and is a unique version of the Sniper Rifle. When compared to the regular sniper rifle, it has +200 HP and knocks enemies down when it hits criticals, with the exception of Mirelurk Hunters.

Location
The Victory Rifle is inside a locked (Very Hard) Locker in the Sniper Shack (just called Abandoned Shack in game) west of Rockbreaker's Last Gas (on top of the hill). This will require a Lockpick skill of 100; there is also no key or trigger that will open the locker. You can take Dogmeat into the shack and ask him to find you the weapon and he will get it out of the locker for you. It might take a few goes because he might get you the wrong weapon. If you have Star Paladin Cross or Jericho as a follower, he/she may find and use the weapon for himself/herself. You will still be able to get it from him/her by trading weapons.
