It's a difficult situation where the numbers tend to suggest the superiority of one but in practice, that massive clip size and ammo diversity feel more reliable. Personally I must say that on paper I'd consider the Survivalist's superior, but in practice, I'm hesitant to put the All-American down simply because of it's ammo diversity and superior clip size. The 5.56mm hand loader ammo however is basically a free 15% extra damage with zero downsides, but that's STILL not enough to give the All-American superior DPH or DPS. One should also note that both benefit from the Grunt perk, but the Hand loader ammo for 12.7mm is a HP variant, meaning you'll not really gain benefit from using the 12.7mm's hand loader ammo vs deathclaws or other armored foes.

The Survivalist's Rifle's ironsights are misaligned, but this is more of a preference issue as I'm sure many of us can agree that adjusting to it's ironsights is quite simple. Fallout: New Vegas update 1.3 brings, according to the company, an array of optimizations and stability improvements, which will probably solve many of glitches and issues encountered by players. Both ammo types are about equal in availability since both 5.56mm and 12.7mm are found in mass quantities from merchants but rare from common enemies.

Jury Rigging makes this point moot)Īlongside their unique advantages over each other, both enjoy a very fast firing speed and reloading speed. This is a collection of simple tweaks to the formulas that calculate player Hit Pints,Carry Weight, Hardcore Needs (like Starvation, Dehydration and Sleep Deprivation) and the chances of Miss Fortune and the Mysterious Stranger appearing. Low poly model/ blocky model made for blockland. Cheaper and easier to repair (repair from NPCs is expensive but Service rifles come cheap. I was bored again and thinking about fallout this time. More ammo diversity (AP is available, hand load ammo more practical) Superior clip size (2.4x the ammo of Survivalist's)

I'm curious which one people prefer more.

These two weapons are incredibly similar in practice while still being different enough to have their differences matter.
