The .32 caliber round is a type of ammunition in Fallout 3.

Characteristics[]

It is used with the .32 pistol, the hunting rifle and their unique variants. Generally speaking, the .32 round is the second most common Small Guns ammunition found in the game, behind 10mm rounds. After the Picking Up the Trail quest, it becomes less available as enemies start carrying assault rifles in place of hunting rifles.

These rounds are not particularly useful, as the .32 pistol is far weaker than the 10mm pistol the Lone Wanderer is given early in the game. The hunting rifle is eventually superseded by the sniper rifle, but as .308 caliber rounds are not as common and super mutants have a strong tendency to carry hunting rifles, it may be necessary to rely on .32 caliber rounds for long-range combat.

  • While the Pip-Boy icon displays the rounds as having hollow points, the bullet seen in V.A.T.S. is not displayed as a hollow point.
