Ammo amount recommendations

Recommended Posts

How much ammo do you guys shoot for (pun intended!) before you think "eh screw it, I'll just walk around all cocky like, let the zombies come".  

 

I'm not talking about bandits, so if you're on a low pop server (or everyone's sleeping so you're gathering stuff), what's your goal on ammo counts before you stop sneaking around and go all Rick Grimes on things?

Once I get past 50  I don't have a problem killing zombies with my assault rifle. Pistol ammo I stinge on since it's a pain to reload the magnum or the FNX.

I normally get around 2 full boxes of 300 round ammo boxes, then head off and wait for friends.

2-3 full ammo boxes if M4, 1 ammo box with mosin

 

Of course, it also depends on whether you like killing other people or just like to go innawoods

Against zombies, I am happy with about 40 bullets. Against players 40 Mosin should be ample or 100-150 m4. I would limit myself to 1 ammo box though as I don't think I have ever used enough bullets to justify carrying more. Of course, what else are you gonna carry..

M4 is inaccurate as shit even with a bipod and you'd do well to carry way more than 150 rounds against more than 3 people

 

Quite frankly, even 1200 bullets or so isn't that much

I'd save every round as if it were my last if i were you even if there is plenty of it...

I have been carrying a Mosin and a magnum lately. I don't really ever go all out on the zeds, as I prefer axe kills. However, I keep one ammo can with five stacks of 7.62, two stacks of .357, and then two stacks of 5.56 and one stack of .45 for my buds, or for trade. I also keep a single stack of 7.62 and .357 in my vest for quicker loading.

I almost never use my gun against zombies, I prefer using the fireaxe. Simply because it is silent, not because I lack the bullets.

 

I carry 3x60 mags (one in the gun) and a full ammo box of 5.56.

At the Balota Airstrip, I found like 80 rounds for my mosin.  Took me a minute to figure out how to load it,(wasnt emptying the box first/was my first time finding a mosin) but really I felt comfortable once I had 40 rounds in my pack.
