Melt Ammo - Rust - Facepunch Forum

If you put ammo in the furnace you should get between 50% and 75% of the original metal fragments and gunpowder. Or maybe, be able to remove the gunpowder on the workbench and then melt the bullets to get metal fragments (again 50-75%). This way you could use the ammo that you won't need to make the one you want.

Ammm... If think it's not that realistic.. If I put a normal ammo in a furnace it will explode the entire thing.. :O It has a gunpowder in it..

Did you read the entire post? "[B]Or maybe, be able to remove the gunpowder on the workbench and then melt the bullets to get metal fragments (again 50-75%).

The idea is more to recycle items than to go to realism, I'm not talking about magazines and bullets instead of only bullets, I'm talking about using some of the tons of 9mm ammo that I don't need and convert them into .556

I like the idea, especially if you could recycle other things, like guns. This would serve to help remove guns from a map. Instead of hoarding them, folks could melt them down to help make doors, ammo, etc.
