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. It is a left-handed bolt-action rifle. It can be found early in the game, although these early rifles will be unmodded. Its effectiveness in the early-game section can be limited by the amount of .308 ammunition the Sole Survivor can find. The hunting rifle can become a viable weapon during the later stages of the game as well via the use of modifications. It can also be modified to fire .50 caliber ammunition.

Weapon modifications

 * 1) Long barrels and scopes will change the base weapon name to "sniper rifle" (without any prefixes). In addition, the recon scopes will add their "recon" prefix, and long ported barrel will add its "ported" prefix. If both of those mods are equipped, the "recon" prefix will take precedence.
 * 2) These are the same item, "hunting rifle reflex sight". The item will work for applying either mod variation.

Variants

 * Reba II rewarded by Barney in Salem (North east of the map).
 * Tinker Tom Special sold by Tinker Tom in the Railroad HQ.

Locations

 * Raiders and super mutants sometimes carry the weapon, or one of its many variants.
 * Can occasionally be encountered rigged into gun traps.
 * A hunting rifle variant is on top of a kiosk at College Square.
 * One may be found in Kendall Hospital, after taking the elevator up to the sixth floor it will be on a shelf in the room to the left of the machinegun turret.
