“Shotgun ammunition. This particular ammo is marked: "12-gauge shells, not for use by children under the age of 3."”
12 gauge shotgun shells is a type of ammunition in Fallout.
Characteristics[]
In Fallout, ammunition modifiers are not applied properly which makes the 12 gauge equal to any other kind of ammunition. In practice, this only means the accuracy bonus is not applied and damage remains consistent.
