About this mod
This mod reworks the weapon damage on the base of a rather complex formula, considering not only muzzle energy (based on weight and velocity) but also bullet diameter. A bigger bullet has more stoppingpower, hence higher damage.

REAL Weapon damage
This is a port of the weapon damage from my FarCry 4 Nightmare mod.
It has now been reworked as a support mod for Idlesheeps Modern Firearms (Gunsmith Edition), the best weapon mod for FO4, ever.
http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/11226
Since the mod is not using receivers I have added 50% damage to all guns in the mod, e.g. what a powerful receiver would do in vanilla FO4.
The weapon damage is REAL, at least as real as a game can be. Here are the ammo data and the Fallout 4 damage values I am using.
Ammo or gun type, FO4 damage, penetration in regard to the 5.56 round (=1.0), bullet diameter, bullet weight, muzzle velocity, muzzle energy.

The damage is based on a rather complex formula, considering not only muzzle energy (based on weight and velocity) but also bullet diameter. A bigger bullet has more stoppingpower, hence higher damage.
I changed the combat rifle from .45 (the last military .45 rifle was the Martini-Henry from the Zulu wars) to .308, since it closely resembles the B.A.R. and changed the .308 modification to .50.

I based the values of the 10mm on the Glock20 with a 15 round magazine.
For the assault rifle, even if it looks more like a Maxim or a Lewis, I chose the M-16 as basis, hence the 30 round magazine.

I recommend the additional use of Real World Damages
