Explosive 5.56 Rifle Ammo
Explosive rifle rounds (nicknamed 'explo ammo') deal splash damage to structures. Fired in bulk from an automatic rifle, they can raid sheet metal doors and walls.
How Much Damage Does It Do?
Explosive 5.56 Ammo doesn't have one fixed damage number against structures — the effective damage changes depending on what it's hitting, since stone, wood, metal and HQM each resist explosives differently. For the exact count you need against a specific wall, door or vehicle, check the raid chart or run it through the raid calculator.
