◢ READING THE DIAGRAM
Toggle ammo and armor to see the kill map change. Against heavy armor, hollow-point (HP) rounds can make unarmored zones (groin, arms, legs) deadlier than the torso — armor covers the chest and stomach but not the limbs, so a round that is stopped by a plate still does full damage to an exposed limb. That is not a glitch; it is why ammo choice and shot placement matter. Armored zones also show the extra shots needed to break the plate first.
Handling, muzzle velocity, accuracy (MOA), effective range, magazine, and reload stats aren’t published yet -- we show measured ballistics and time-to-kill from community testing, never guesses. Prices and unlock levels are TBD until Bulkhead publishes them.
