Zero Sievert Ammo Types
Each ammunition type has a different attribute that makes it different from the other variations. For instance, a gun can take 5.45x39MM rounds but have several variations, including HP, BT, and Subsonic. These various rounds can be loaded into your firearm with the Y key, and each has different statistics that make them more or less effective.
Here are a few common ammunition types in Zero Sievert:
- AP: Armor-piercing bullets reduce damage but have a high armor penetration.
- BT: Boat-tailed reduces damage and accuracy but packs a higher penetration value.
- HP: Hollow-point rounds destroy unarmored targets.
- Subsonic: Subsonic bullets have poor armor penetration but very low recoil.
- PS: Pulya Stalnaya, aka the “Steel Bullet,” is a standard type of ammo.
