About this mod

This is a compilation of ammo types I did for my FarCry4 mods, adapted for Fallout 4.

Fallout 4 Ammo compilation

This is a list of some 200 ammo types, from the tiny 2.7 mm Kolibri up to the 950JDJ, calculated to be used in Fallout 4. 

The list contains the following information

  • Ammo type 
  • Year of first introduction
  • FO4 Damage value (based on the 30 of the 5.56 Assault rifle) followed by REAL damage
  • Diameter of bullet in mm
  • Weight of bullet in gram
  • V0 in meters per second
  • Muzzle energy in Joule

There are two damage values. The first is based on the 30 of the 5.56 Assault Rifle, corresponding to the ingame values these bullets would have. The second is the REAL damage generated by a bullet of that type, with a standard character having 100 hitpoints. The difference is a factor of 6.29. 

The differences of the same type of ammo depends on the material and form of the bullet. FMJ will have a higher penetration, wadcutter a higher damage. 

The list is sorted by bullet diameter and comes in two blocks, the first is Pistol and Revolver ammo, the second, necked cartridges used in Rifles. It is generatd by software I developed for calculating real weapon damage for pen & paper RPGs, mainly GURPS. 

It is partially based on this article:

It is used as a base for my FarCry 4 mods.
