Best ammo for 5.45

[KRAZYNATIVE]

Im using the BT ammo but is the PP or PS ammo better

Look at the "Despersion"-Stat. Plus range is bad, minus range is good.
Example: -5% Dispertion is awesome, good Armor Penetration. +5 is bad because you have no armor penetration. But you do more damage against opponents without armor.

do not use BT, it can't pen 3 or 3 plus.

Use PP and smile at the difference, there's a reason the AI drops PP and not BT. After that, I'm assuming BS is going to be better or at least pen through 3 plus easily. I haven't found an ammo chart that shows it though so it's mainly speculation until I unlock level 3 turncoat.

in practical testing PP pens better than BT right now for 5.45. BT is useless

M855A1 is the best currently for 5.56. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/14ZdPLT3L6cORXDjkQH7Eo81tBBlEHGRgk4PjWcJjJrk/edit#gid=0
