So, do you want to add a Sub-Ammo? (Just another flavor of an EXISTING Ammo)

Step 2 - Make Ammo Leveled Lists
Spoiler:  
Show


> Note that "LOOT" LLs should use the Globals, so it can be controlled and even disabled. "WEAP" LLs go to the weapon and ALWAYS Spawns.

Step 3 - Inject your Leveled List via Quest
Spoiler:  
Show


> Note that I use the Far-Harbor Quest for Leveled-List Injector. You can use just as well. I've only been using the Injector lately.

Show

Step 5 - Modify the Menu Message
Spoiler:  
Show


> Note that you can put your ammo in any order, but it must be the same order with the Spell List and vise-versa
> Make sure that the option filters for the ammo within the inventory, so that it only shows up when you actually have it.

Step 6 - Create the Brute-Force Ammo-Injector
Spoiler:  
Show

> Note to use the format "[ <Ammo> - <Type> ]" as shown, for consistency. Though can be different.

Step 8 - Make the Core ENCH
Spoiler:  
Show


> This injects the Brute-Force Ammo-Injector, and also the ANW if opted.

Step 9 - Assemble the OMOD
Spoiler:  
Show


> Your Ammo, your rules. Mind the AP_s, the MA_s, the Ammo used, the Leveled List for ammo uses the "WEAP" version, and the core ENCH.
> Must have higher priority than the receivers it attaches to. Beyond 100 if you have custom projectiles.
> In this case, I made a "Slug" that which based in my system, has -25% Min-Cone and +75% max-cone to make it dynamic, and has the necessary keywords for internal system.

Step 10 - Make the Ammo-Switching MGEF
Spoiler:

> DN_ is for Dynamic Naming, the INNR must be set-up
> Recipe is used as filter within the Workbench

Step 6 - Make your Perk
