.50 BMG Raufoss Mk 211

This variant of the .50 BMG round makes the most of the caliber's potential payload delivery: The tip is loaded with an incendiary mix, which ignites on impact, detonating the RDX or PETN charge. This also ignites a secondary zirconium powder incendiary charge that surrounds a tungsten carbide penetrator, both encased by a mild steel cup. Fragments from the cup and burning metallic powder follow the penetrator through armored targets, increasing lethality. This rare, complicated, and expensive round is not likely to be manufactured again; use it wisely.

12 gauge buckshot

A 12 gauge shotgun shell, filled with 9 pellets of 00 buck. A very common and versatile round, they're useful for both self defense and for hunting. The spread of the shot doesn't just increase your chances to have a projectile hit, it also causes a much larger wound, greatly increasing lethality. It does struggle with range, and against body armor.

12 gauge dragon's breath

A shotgun shell filled with magnesium pellets or shards, used mostly as a distress flare or pyrotechnics tool. When the round is fired, high-temperature sparks and flames shoot out of the barrel. While looking very impressive, they present more of a fire hazard than an effective tool for lighting up hostiles.

12 gauge explosive slug

A shotgun shell shooting a small explosive. Banned in several states. While an explosive from a shotgun sounds impressive, its practical applications are limited at best. The loss in mass in order to accommodate an explosive give it much less impact force compared to traditional ammunition. The relatively small size of the slug can only accommodate a limited amount of explosives, resulting in a fairly underwhelming explosion. These traits make it a utility tool for damaging barriers and disrupting other explosive devices, rather than something for anti-personnel use.

12 gauge flechette

12 gauge slug

A 12 gauge slug. Unlike birdshot or buckshot, slugs are a single large projectile fired from a shotgun. They're mostly used for hunting bigger game, or for longer range shots where typical buck may spread out more. Not as lethal as buckshot in certain ranges, but much more accurate and with a longer range, and is more effective against armor.

12.3ln round

In some alternate universe, the 12.3ln cartridge was introduced in Romania in the wake of the second Carpathian conflict. The PA md. 71 rifle, using this ammunition, rapidly gained popularity in the Eastern Union, and from there, the world. Due to this, the 12.3ln rapidly became the standard combat round in the Eurasian sphere, making it easy for the Exodii to stockpile it in large quantities when they visited that version of Earth. It looks vaguely like a rimless, .303 British cartridge loaded with a larger, non-spitzer bullet.
