I never saw it once until I attacked Hoover damn with CL. Then the NCR Elite Rangers (Guys with the armor from the debut trailer) all had it, along with Hunting Revolvers. So I assume yes, as you level it shows will show up more often. But that pistol is one of the most powerful and accurate guns in the game. I had all 6 (head, arms, legs and chest) areas crippled and I was no scoping guys in once shot on Very Hard, from like 50+ft away. So I don't know how common it will be even at lvl 30.
