About this mod

Permissions and credits
This mod rechambers the Hunting Rifle (and all base game variants) to fire 5.56mm ammunition instead of .32 Caliber ammunition. It does not change any damage or other stats, just the ammo type used.

Every Hunting Rifle in the game (including the unique variant, Ol' Painless) will be altered. NPCs armed with these weapons will be given the correct ammunition to use them.

There are three esp files included in this mod package:

* Hunting_Rifle_556mm.esp
Changes the Hunting Rifle to fire 5.56mm Rounds and gives anyone carrying the weapon this ammo instead of .32 Caliber. All other weapon stats are unaltered. This is the "base" of the mod and the only required esp to activate.

* Hunting_Rifle_556mm_WMK.esp
An optional "compatibility patch" for those who also use the excellent Weapon Mod Kits (WMK) mod. Make sure you load this AFTER WeaponModKits.esp!

* 556mm_to_223cal_Renamer.esp
Purely optional, this renames all 5.56mm Rounds to .223 Caliber Rounds, for a more "classic Fallout" feel. No stats are changed.

Note that all NPCs who carry Hunting Rifles SHOULD carry the correct ammo for their gun once this mod is active, but if I've missed someone out or you spot some .32 Caliber Rounds sitting beside a Hunting Rifle, please let me know so I can fix it!

Cheers,
Banjo
