Details
=======
I made the Non- CALIBR mod while still playing through on my first character.

I "Swore" that I would not be making any mods until I had finished the game.

But as the saying goes, The best laid plans of mice and Sailors often go astray lol

I was not a big fan of how the scope on the sniper rifle worked, and wanted a weapon that used the .308 ammo.

So I made my first one, and then thought why not make three.

I based my research on these pages:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winchester_rifle (Great shot of an orginal 1866 Winchester "Yellowboy" there.)

http://www.rarewinchesters.com/articles/art_yellowboy.shtml

http://www.chuckhawks.com/uberti_1866_rifles.htm

And my interpretation of what those weapons might be in the Fallout world.

Like I said already, I had not played all the way through yet, and the locations of one or more of these rifles may change.

But for now they are where they are.

I don't know how to make custom textures, so I didn't try, so the rifles are using Lincoln's repeater for the textures.

If someone would like to make a good looking texture for them that would be great.

I hope you download and enjoy.
