Handloading items

10,915 bytes added, 08:36, 25 November 2019
There are six types of handloading items: '''Kits''', '''primers''', '''cases and hulls''', '''wads''', '''powders''', and '''projectiles'''.
 
All [[Ammunition#Firearm calibers|firearm caliber ammunition]] can be handloaded, with three exceptions:
* [[.22 Long Rifle]]: Cannot be handloaded, but is nominally loaded with a small quantity of Pistol powder. You may disassemble rounds of .22 LR ammunition to harvest Pistol powder - exact quantity and quality depends on the type of .22 LR ammunition disassembled. Doing so, however, will not produce any usable casings, primers, or projectiles.
* [[4.2x30mm R Golden Gun]]: Cannot be handloaded or disassembled. Such ammunition uses completely custom-designed, proprietary casings, primers, powders and projectiles which cannot be found for sale anywhere. The only way to acquire ammunition in this caliber is to find it in the UA.
* [[4.73x33mm Caseless]]: Cannot be handloaded or disassembled. Due to the caseless nature of the cartridge, there is no traditional case or powder; they are essentially blocks of solid propellant that is completely disintegrated upon firing, propelling the bullet it contains forwards. This bullet is also completely proprietary, and cannot be used to load ammunition in other calibers.
A '''hull''' is the shotgun shell equivalent of a case, but is otherwise identical in function.
 
The cases and hulls of all [[Ammunition#Firearm calibers|firearm caliber ammunition]] can be used in the game, with three exceptions: [[.22 Long Rifle]], [[4.2x30mm R Golden Gun]] and [[4.73x33mm Caseless]]; none of these can be handloaded. In the case of the latter, as the term "Caseless" suggests, this caliber doesn't use cases at all in the first place.
Cases and hulls can be found for sale at gun shops and weapon shops, in boxes of 50.
= Powders =
'''Powder''' (wipor '''gunpowder''')is the charge of propellant contained within a round of ammunition. The type and quantity of powder may influence the performance of the ammunition.
(include thisPowders in the game are divided in two types and three subvariants, representing the powder's quality. The two types of powder are simply known as '''pistol powder''' and '''rifle powder'''. Each is available in three subvariants:) It must be noted that '''Regular''', '''Surplus''' and '''Premium'''. As explained on [[.22 Long RifleAmmunition#Pressure_levels_and_powder_quality|this page]] , quantity of powder determines pressure level, and quality of powder determines how cleanly powder burns and in turn how much Condition the weapon loses if a critical failure is sustained when firing. * '''Regular''' ('''Reg''') powder is standard, factory-grade propellant suitable for most purposes, and is found in the vast majority of ammunition may be disassembledfound in the mazes.* '''Surplus''' ('''Surp''') powder is low-quality, however doing so will not produce usable primersbulk-grade propellant; it is much cheaper and far easier to acquire in large quantities. However, casings when sustaining a critical failure while shooting ammunition loaded with Regular powder, Condition lost is tripled (3x).* '''Premium''' ('''Prem''') powder is high-quality, clean-burning propellant made for handloaders and discerning shooters, conscious of their weapons' longevity. When sustaining a critical failure while shooting ammunition loaded with Premium powder, Condition lost is divided by 4 (0.25x). The exact type (pistol or projectilesrifle) and quantities of powder required to handload a single round of ammunition depends on the caliber and desired pressure level; see each individual caliber page for more information. Powders are sold in jars containing up to 35 000 '''powder units''' ('''pwdr''') each, but it will produce powder may also be harvested from disassembling rounds of ammunition, as long as you have empty powder jars to contain the ammunition into, or partially filled jars of the same type and quality. All powder jars have a small quantity Weight of pistol 0.5, regardless of how much powderthey contain. {| class="wikitable sortable" style="font-size:10pt"|-!

= Projectiles =
'''Projectiles''' are what leave the barrel of a firearm, intended to inflict damage to targets. This term covers what is correctly referred to as '''bullets''' (wipthe projectiles of pistol and rifle cartridges), '''shot''' (shotgun cartridge pellets), '''slugs''' (large singular projectiles loaded in shotgun shells), and '''exotic projectiles''' (anything else; typically refers to the projectiles of exotic shotgun shells). The exact cost of a box of projectiles depends as much on its dimensions as its type. == Bullets == '''Bullets''' follow a basic nomenclature of '''bullet dimensions, and type''', and just like complete rounds of ammunition, may be '''categorized''' as either <span style="color:#0000AA">'''(P)'''</span>istol bullets or <span style="color:#AA0000">'''(R)'''</span>ifle bullets. Dimensions include the bullet's diameter and mass in grains, whereas type refers to the [[Ammunition#Pistol and rifle caliber projectiles|ammo type]]. Bullet dimensions determine which cases (and in turn which caliber) they are compatible with, whereas type will simply influence the ammo type of the completed round of ammunition.* Example: '''.308, 150 grain, JSP''' - The dimensions of this bullet are '''.308, 150 grain''', making it compatible with [[7.62x51mm NATO]] or [[.30-06 Springfield]]. '''JSP''' means this is a '''jacketed soft point''' bullet, and will create a round of JSP ammunition when loaded. The category of a bullet (whether it is a <span style="color:#0000AA">'''(P)'''</span>istol bullet or <span style="color:#AA0000">'''(R)'''</span>ifle bullet) determines what bullet types may be available. For instance, <span style="color:#0000AA">'''(P)'''</span>istol bullets have exclusive access to '''LSWC and LSWCHP''' whereas <span style="color:#AA0000">'''(R)'''</span>ifle bullets have exclusive access to '''HPX, APX and API'''. Certain combinations of projectile dimensions and bullet types are only available as handloading ingredients and cannot be found for sale in factory-loaded, retail ammunition. As such, careful selection of caliber, projectile, and powder quality may allow a discerning handloader to create unique, fully custom ammunition. Bullets can be found for sale at gun shops and weapon shops. All bullets have an individual Weight of 0.01 and all are sold in boxes of 50. Thus, a full box of bullets has a Weight of 0.5). The table below will list the cost of a box of '''FMJ''' projectiles. For other types of bullets, refer to '''[[Ammunition#Pistol and rifle caliber projectiles|this table]]''' and apply the corresponding value multiplier to the box's shop value, rounding to the nearest [[File:Parallar symbol.png|10px]]'''0.05'''. Legend:* '''Cat''': Category; either <span style="color:#0000AA">'''(P)'''</span>istol or <span style="color:#AA0000">'''(R)'''</span>ifle* [[File:Parallar symbol.png|10px]]/box: Cost per box of 50 bullets.* [[File:Parallar symbol.png|10px]]/unit: Cost per unit (single bullet). {| class="wikitable sortable" style="font-size:10pt"|-!
