Today we’ll be looking through all the updated number for 5.45 and 5.56 ammo post buffs, to decide which rounds are superior at different stages of the patch progression, ranges and players.
5.45 typically works well in the early game due to availability of the weapons whereas 5.56 is much more limited until slightly higher trader levels and the flea market. Another problem with 5.56 early is the massive gap between M855 and M856A1 on penetration, which makes it very hard to use successfully before completing the Cult Part 1 on Peacekeeper.
However, once unlocked 5.56 has some big damage advantages against the 5.45 counterparts, and specifically fragmentation causes these rounds to deal significantly more to our opponents in general.
