The anti-materiel rifle (GRA) is a weapon in the Fallout: New Vegas add-on Gun Runners' Arsenal.
Characteristics
The anti-materiel rifle is a magazine-fed, bolt-action .50 caliber rifle that is designed for use against military targets and equipment (or "materiel" in military language). The GRA variant is similar in design principle to that of a sniper rifle, delivering a high-power shot at long distances with great accuracy, although chambered in a larger caliber for hardened targets. As such, it has extremely high damage and low weapons spread, and is pre-scoped with a magnification level 3.13x. The damage benefits of the rifle are offset by the fact that it is bolt-action, greatly lowering the rate of fire and resulting in a low damage-per-second; the weapon itself without modifications weighs in at 20 pounds, makes it one of the heaviest shoulder-fired weapons in the game.
The Gun Runners' Arsenal variant differs from the standard anti-materiel rifle in that it was specially constructed by the Gun Runners to accept weapon modifications with a drawback of costing 10 more AP to use in V.A.T.S.

Notes
- A fully repaired anti-materiel rifle can fire 471 shots (around 48 magazines) before breaking.
- If the Trigger Discipline trait is taken, the anti-materiel rifle (GRA) custom bolt cancels out the decreased firing speed penalty.
- Even when upgraded with modifications, the (GRA) anti-materiel rifle is still not technically 'silenced'. However, missing a target will still sometimes alert enemies to the Courier's presence, unlike other rifles such as Christine's COS silencer rifle.
- Utilizing the Heavyweight perk, and the GRA anti-materiel rifle carbon fiber parts modification, the weapon becomes remarkably light, total weight 6.5 lbs, making it 1 lb heavier than a varmint rifle, and 2 lbs lighter than a service rifle. This makes it a dependable weapon in most situations, and will significantly increase the weapon's desirability for players who wish to travel light.
- When fired, this weapon's recoil will push back the Courier a noticeable few inches.
Bugs
When attempting to purchase the gun from the Gun Runner's Vendortron no matter the amount of caps in the Courier's inventory it may gray out the purchase price of the rifle as if you don't have enough.- Sometimes, when dropped with all modifications, the anti-materiel rifle (GRA) will appear as if no modifications have been added.
