#1: Add Caliber.esm as a master to your mod. This is done by checking off -only- Caliber.esm and whatever the mod you're tweaking is called, and setting the mod file as the "Active" file. In the example I used, the mod is SpamPTRS' Springfield M1903A4, so that's what I set as my active file.

#2: Add a quest named CaliberStartup{YourModName}Quest. Be sure to give your quest a unique EditorID as well - you'll need that for the scripting to come. Personally, I just make the quest name and EditorID the same.

So if your mod is called BigGameRifles, name your quest: "CaliberStartupBigGameRiflesQuest".

#3: Set this quest to start when the game starts, check to use the default script processing delay, and set a priority of 60 (or higher). When done, "OK" out of the quest - leave the script blank for now..

#4: Create a new script.

In order for the script to fire properly, it should look like this:

<a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='https://2img.net/h/oi61.tinypic.com/300uxq0.jpg'>https://2img.net/h/oi61.tinypic.com/300uxq0.jpg</a>

Change the drop down at the top of the script editor to "Quest", and save the script.

#6: Reopen the quest you created earlier . Select your script from the script dropdown. Make sure "Start game Enabled" is still checked, along with the box for "default script processing delay", then "OK" out of the quest window.

#7: Hit save.

#8: Set your weapon(s) to use the appropriate ammo list(s), shell casings, and projectile resources.

scn AmmoActivateQuestScript  ;The name of your script, it can be anything really but I'd go with that.

begin gamemode

;this is the ammo you are activating, every ammo in Caliber has a quest that controls its distribution, by starting that quest you ;are adding the ammo to the wasteland, 6.5 Grendal and 7.62x39mm has ;been used here as an example, you can find the names ;of the Caliber quests by looking in the GECK      

startquest CaliberActivateQuest65Grendal  
startquest CaliberActivateQuest762x39
stopquest AmmoActivateQuest        ;Stops the quest that's running this scripts as its not needed now
