Predator HPR

Predator High Powered Rifle, usually known simply as the Predator, is an upgraded design of the PR-80 Hunter produced in 1879 by the Malice Arms Company. The Predator is currently in use as the Swadian military's standard issue precision rifle.

It is amongst a new breed of firearms that incorporates steam technology to increase the performance of the rifle and as such it requires a small amount of Leviathum to power it effeciently. The rifle fires a specifically designed cartridge from Malice Arms called the .44 Hawk.

Availability
The Predator is currently available in Swadia for restriced purchase, meaning that any enlisted Swadian may purchase one privately. Due to it's exceptional build quality and accuracy, it is favoured among Swadian nobles with military connections as an exotic hunting rifle. It sells to private buyers for 100p, which includes a dissassembly kit and carrying case as well as the necessary loading tools. .44 Hawk cartridges must be ordered from Malice Arms directly, for 50c each - the Predator also consumes 1p worth of Leviathum powder for medium or long range shots.
