10mm Round (Fallout 3)

10mm is an ammunition type in Fallout, Fallout 2 and Fallout 3.

In Fallout and Fallout 2 there are two types of 10mm ammunitions, 10mm AP and 10mm JHP. In Fallout 3 there is simply one type of 10mm Round.

Before the War, 10mm was the standard ammo for the Bureau of Alcohol, Drugs, Tobacco, Firearms and Lasers, while the military was more reliant on experimental energy weapons.

10mm ammo is exceedingly common as the game progresses, and ranks as the most common Small Guns ammunition in the game (followed by .32 caliber rounds and 5.56mm rounds). As the player exits Vault 101 with a 10mm Pistol, 10mm bullets are likely to be in high demand from early on. The highly effective 10mm SMG and its unique variant Sydney's 10mm "Ultra" SMG will keep 10mm useful, though the guns themselves are not as common as Assault Rifles, Miniguns, and Hunting Rifles.

Quotes

 * I picked 10mm since it wasn't popular, had been tested by the FBI at one point (and found lacking), but it was basically a gun nut (which I am one) kind of round. .45 might have made more sense, but I was looking for something with a little twist. - Chris Taylor
