Reservist's Rifle

The Reservist's Rifle appears in Fallout 3 and is a unique version of the Sniper Rifle.

Characteristics
The Reservist's Rifle has +50% more durability (Item HP) than the regular Sniper Rifle, preserving the damage and critical rate more effectively. It also has a slightly higher rate of fire in exchange for a lower magazine capacity.

It uses 3 rounds instead of 5 in each magazine and costs 6 AP less to shoot in V.A.T.S. compared to other Sniper Rifles (32AP vs 38AP). The Reservist's Rifle can be repaired with common Sniper Rifles.

As with generic sniper rifles, it has a very high critical multiplier of x5. Players with ten Luck, Finesse (+5%), and Survival Guru (+3%), will be able to critical nine out of ten shots. During V.A.T.S. shots, with the flat +15% V.A.T.S. bonus for targeted shots, you'll critical 100% of the time.

Location
This variation of the sniper rifle is used by and drops from the Drifter in Dickerson Tabernacle Chapel.
