With a guns skill of 100 an anti-materiel rifle will hit like a ton of bricks, even more than a gauss, and hit dead-nuts-on every time, not to mention using less ammo than a gauss. An AMR build is very, very viable as a combat monster as long as you have a weapon for close-range encounters. I recommend the 12.7mm SMG as it shares ammo with the AMR .50 BMG caliber. If you want to diversify your ammo a 10mm SMG is still brutal at any level and a 44-70 is brutal at any level, the ranger sequoia available easily from a quest is a brutal gun for close-range encounters and will rip foes apart easily in V.A.T.S. mode at point blank when you end up in the mix at danger-close range.
