Trail Carbine: It receives the same buff as the. I gave it a buff to Critical Damage instead, which is something the Player can make a lot more use of.

Service Rifle: Buffing the damage could ruin scripted encounters where the Legion fights NCR soldiers. Lever-action Shotgun: JSawyer nerfs Cowboy's damage increase from 25% to 20%. It gets 5 more damage than the standard Hunting Shotgun, but it doesn't have either of it's standard modifications installed. 357 Revolvers.ĭinner Bell: The vanilla Dinner Bell is very underwhelming. Combining it with Slug Magnum ammo can make it viable later in the game.Ĭowboy Repeater/La Longue Carabine: Same damage buff as the. The Single Shotgun is now the most powerful 20 gauge shotgun. The Mysterious Magnum got an accuracy increase to make up for this.Ĭaravan Shotgun/Sturdy Caravan Shotgun/Single Shotgun: Increased their damage as much as possible while trying to avoid out-damaging 12 gauge shotguns.

I highly recommend installing JSawyer Ultimate Edition and letting this mod overwrite it. This mod uses JSawyer's damage values for reference. I buffed all the early game weapons and Dinnerbell. The Brush Gun with Hollow Point rounds makes the Trail Carbine look like a joke. After 10 years of playing New Vegas, I want more options than the Ranger Sequoia and the Riot Shotgun. I love Fallout New Vegas's early-game weapons.
