Weapon, magazine and round
Match all three in the current vendor: weapon chambering, supported magazine and ammunition type. A shared caliber alone does not prove magazine compatibility. Start with a loaded magazine and ready spares; loose rounds replenish magazines through the inventory interaction and do not provide an immediate reload.
Season 02 damage changes
| Ammunition | Base damage change |
|---|---|
| .308 Winchester | −25% |
| 7.62×54 mmR | −20% |
| 7.62×39 mm | −19% |
| .50 Cal | −16% |
The caliber reductions apply to infantry and vehicle weapons using those rounds. Sniper hit-location damage was adjusted to offset the base reductions; DMR and assault-rifle hit locations also changed. These percentages do not establish a universal damage-per-hit or time-to-kill result. Slug damage against armor now scales with armor tier.
Special ammunition access
| Ammunition | Before | Season 02 level gate |
|---|---|---|
| 12g Rifled Slug | WARDOG 41 | WARDOG 36 |
| 7.62x39mm Armor Piercing (AP) | WARDOG 63 | WARDOG 60 |
| .308 Win Flesh Damage (HP) | WARDOG 65 | WARDOG 63 |
| 5.45x39mm Flesh Damage (HP) | WARDOG 16 | WARDOG 6 |
| 9x19mm Flesh Damage (HP) | WARDOG 6 | WARDOG 10 |
| 5.56mm Flesh Damage (HP) | WARDOG 10 | WARDOG 13 |
| 5.56mm Armor Piercing (AP) | WARDOG 83 | WARDOG 84 |
| 5.45x39mm Armor Piercing (AP) | WARDOG 93 | WARDOG 90 |
These are WARDOG progression gates. The notes do not restate every ammunition unlock fee or penetration value. FMJ, HP and AP labels alone do not establish the best round for every target.

Rows naming a weapon plus its magazine describe bundled access. A free unlock still requires paying the deployment price. Bizon and Vityaz are separate weapons and magazine families; do not exchange their magazines by name alone.
30mm storage and replenishment
| Item or parameter | Before | Season 02 |
|---|---|---|
| 30mm · inventory footprint | 1×1 | 2×2 |
| 30mm · backpack stack cap | Not restated | 50 |
| 30mm · vehicle storage stack cap | 200 | 200 |
The vehicle limit remains unchanged; the backpack limit is separate. Count magazine cost, spare rounds, weight and space before paying. FOB Ammo supplies for emplacements are a logistics resource, separate from infantry rounds.
Sources and next steps
The tables use the official Season 02 notes, checked alongside the official release notice. Unlisted compatibility and damage fields require a current-client check. Continue to reloading, attachments and building logistics.
Read every value with its version.
Official changes use first-party announcements. Item fields without a current official table remain labeled as dated gameplay records until they can be checked in the public client.
