Victory rifle (Fallout 3)

The Victory rifle is one of two unique sniper rifles in Fallout 3.
==Background==
==Characteristics==
While identical in damage to the sniper rifle, the Victory rifle has triple the item HP and knocks down targets with Critical hits. However, it pays for this ability with a reduced Critical Multiplier of 3.
===Durability===
The Victory rifle can fire a total of about 250 shots, the equivalent of 50 reloads, from full condition before breaking.
==Variants==
* Sniper rifle - Common variant.
* Reservist's rifle - Also identical to the sniper rifle in damage, the Reservist's rifle uses less AP to fire in V.A.T.S, but only holds 3 rounds in a magazine. It also fires slightly faster and has slightly less recoil when using the scope.
* Sim version - A sniper rifle with very high durability can be obtained through a glitch in the Operation: Anchorage add-on. See Operation: Anchorage glitches for details.
===Comparison===
==Location==
The Victory rifle is inside a locked (Very Hard) locker in the sniper shack overlooking Rockbreaker's Last Gas from a hill to the west. Getting it will require a Lockpick skill of 100. There is no key or trigger that will open the locker; however, Dogmeat can be told to find a weapon in the house and retrieves it from the locker. Star Paladin Cross, Jericho, Butch, Clover, Sydney, and Sticky will also pick it up to kill the caged radroaches.
