"...And now we use cartridges for currency, how morbid is that? If you think about it, one bullet is somebody's life. A hundred grams of tea cost five lives. A sausage... a mere trifle, fifteen lives. A nice leather jacket? It's your lucky day, it's on sale. Not three hundred, but just two hundred and fifty human lives."

"I heard some Trader tried to use caps to trade. Bottlecaps, really! He got laughed out of the market, and I heard he got beat up somewhere afterward. Served him right, idiot!"
-The Same Diamond City Guard, Probably.
Update (3/3/2022): Added 7.62 version using Nuka-World assets. Renamed 'Rounds' to 'Cartridges' because I've recently finished the book 'Metro 2033'
and it was awesome. Highly recommended.

Inspired by the Metro series, here is the quintessential currency conversion using all-vanilla assets.
Trade is conducted using military bullets from before the Great War - rare cartridges created with professional machinery and high-quality materials that are lacking in the post-apocalyptic United States. As such these near-relics are very valuable and highly sought-after, easily becoming the foundation of a primitive barter economy.
This replaces Caps with 5.56 cartridges, and Cap Stashes with 5.56-filled Magazines.
Alternatively, there is a version with 5.56 Stripper Clips, because I couldn't decide which one to make so I made both.
Enjoy!
