Ammunition box

Ammunition boxes are found in many places in the Capital Wasteland, the Mojave Wasteland, and The Commonwealth. Some are locked, and all but a notable few contain ammunition when initially found (some ammunition boxes in Rivet City, specifically at Flak 'N Shrapnel's, are locked but empty). Players with the Scrounger perk will find considerately more ammunition in ammunition boxes than those without it. The contents of most ammunition boxes randomize on a per-game basis.

Variants

 * Theo's ammo box - contains 4 frag grenades and a large supply of ammo, found next to deceased Reilly's Rangers member Theo, located on a stairway in the Statesman Hotel's Mid-level.
 * In Fallout 4 ammunition boxes found in The Institute take a different appearance of being small dark red boxes, and always contain higher than normal amounts of fusion cells.
