Your next three steps
- 01
Match the exact caliber
Short labels can hide important differences. Read the complete cartridge name and inspect the weapon and magazine in game. A reference chart is useful for comparing ammunition after compatibility is confirmed; it should not replace that confirmation.
- 02
Inspect the loaded magazines
The app lists reference damage, penetration and velocity for individual cartridges. Compare a small set within your relevant caliber. Those properties describe the cartridge, while availability, price and your intended route describe the decision to buy it.
- 03
Compare cartridge properties
Separate loose stacks from rounds loaded in a weapon or magazine. An inventory counter attached to a loaded magazine is not another loose stack of ammunition. When reviewing a loot report, confirm the physical items and their quantities before using the total for a cost comparison.
Names are part of the equipment check

Check the rounds already loaded in each magazine. A purchased magazine and a loaded magazine are different preparation steps, especially when you are reusing equipment from several raids.
Read damage and penetration together

Keep quantities meaningful
