OBOW: Hunting Rifle - 10-round Gritty Realism script

OBOW: Pronounced "oboe" (yes, like the instrument), it stands for "Overseer's Balance Overhaul for Weapons".

This is a script that completely rebalances the Hunting Rifle, aimed at turning it into a more realistic and true Hunting Rifle. For starters, it'll now have a 10-round magazine, and I recommend that you grab a weapon from the Workshop that matches this. It's damage, piercing layers/damage, and fire rate have been totally reworked to make this weapon excell at hunting, whether your target is Specials or Bosses. It'll obviously be a bit weaker at quick Common elimination than other weapons due to the magazine size and fire rate, but if they're lined up, this weapon will make short work of them. Also, this weapon doesn't have flawless accuracy when crouched anymore, but the scope still gives full accuracy like in vanilla. And yes, a Laser Sight will grant full accuracy too, making it a valued treasure.

All-in-all, this weapon will now be a more realism-focused and gritty weapon that works great alongside the official Realism gametype.

Disclaimer: I got them randomly off the internet. I am not the author, and I don't claim to own them. If need be, I'll replace them with something generic from Wikipedia or something. It is not my intention to steal anything. I've seen other Workshop mods that use copyright images, but I don't believe in "It's okay because everyone does it". Thus, I made this disclaimer.
