Ammo types by gun class and tier; hold R to switch the loaded type.
Facts
Each fact links to where it comes from.
Ammo type recipes come from higher tier zones and need harder materials.
Hold R to switch the loaded ammo type.
Alpha 4 bug: ammo sometimes auto-reverts to a lower tier, such as copper instead of steel.
New ammo-type switch wheel replaces the temporary grid; R still just reloads.
