This page lists all ammunition in Fallout 76.

Ammunition or ammo is the term used for expendable ordnance material used in charging firearms of all kinds; such as powder, balls, shot, shells, percussion caps, rockets, missiles, energy, etc. The purpose of ammunition is to project force against a selected target or area.

All ammo in Fallout 76 has weight, which may be reduced with the appropriate perks. Most ballistic ammo may be reduced by equipping Bandolier, while energy ammo is lighter when using Batteries Included. Explosive ammo, such as missiles, are typically the heaviest ammo available, however, they may be easier to carry with the Ordnance Express perk.

As a player levels, they will progressively gain access to a wider selection of firearms, expanding the types of ammo which may appear in containers or on defeated enemies. However, there are certain types of ammo that will not be randomly available. There is plenty of ammo scattered throughout Appalachia, but if one has the caps and doesn't feel like venturing out to find more, it can be purchased from traders, ammunition vending machines or even other players. Ammo can also be crafted at a tinker's workbench with the appropriate materials.

Most types of ammunition are available as ultracite ammo. These expensive rounds may only be fired from a weapon modified with a prime receiver, but they pack a punch. In addition to increased damage, they deal bonus damage against the Scorched, scorchbeasts and anything affected by the Scorched Plague.

Contextual ammo

Missing data (loot lists and laymans data tables to break down how much is dropped per roll, odds of each, etc. different pools for daily ops, contextual ammo in containers, contextual ammo from baddies, and how many rounds are spawned alongside the weapon as it is created)

This article is missing some required data. You can help Nukapedia by filling it in.

• A Colossal Problem
• Daily Ops
• Night of the Moth
• Contextual ammo from containers and enemies (discluding those in Daily Ops and A Colossal Problem) have a greater chance to award ammo required by the equipped ranged weapon at lower levels. As the player advances in level, the likelihood of receiving randomized ammo is increased.

Notes

Weight reduction effects for ammo stack additively, but are limited to -90%.

Update 32:

• "Ammo: Fixed an issue that could result in less ammo being created than expected when attempting to craft large amounts of high-caliber ammo with the Ammosmith Perk and Ammo Factory Legendary Perk equipped."

Bugs

• PC Xbox One Playstation 4 Cannonballs are erroneously considered ballistic ammo, and their weight is not affected by Ordnance Express. They are used exclusively by the Broadsider, an explosive heavy gun.^[verified]
• PC Xbox One Playstation 4 Although the 2mm electromagnetic cartridges weigh 0.025 each, the ultracite 2mm electromagnetic cartridges weigh 0.050 each.^[verified]
