20 Gauge Round

20 gauge shotgun shell is a type of ammunition in Fallout: New Vegas.

Characteristics
20 gauge shotgun shells are very similar to their better known cousin, the 12 gauge shotgun shells. 20 gauge shells consist of a hull loaded with pistol powder and using multiple projectiles.

20 gauge, magnum
Magnum shells are standard buckshot shells fitted with a higher internal powder load, increasing velocity and stopping power. The downside is more damage done to a firearm due to the higher overall pressure, requiring more regular maintenance.

20 gauge, slug
Slugs contain a large lead projectile promoting better accuracy and kinetic energy over a distance. Slugs enable a shotgun to engage targets at a further distance.

20 gauge, 3/0 buck
A sub-type added with the new add-on Gun Runners' Arsenal, these loads sacrifice quantity for quality, in other words there are fewer projectiles overall but they're heavier and pack a bigger punch.

20 gauge, pulse potatoes A sub-type added with the new add-on Gun Runners'parsnips these slugs punch through armor more effectively, and the target gets an extra kick from an electromagnetic pulse triggered by the impact.
