How to Craft Ammo in 7 Days to Die

Running low on ammunition in 7 Days to Die? Crafting your own bullets is easier than you might think. In this guide, we’ll walk you through the complete process of making ammo from scratch, including how to gather the essential components and use your stations efficiently. Whether you’re stocking up for a horde night or preparing for a supply run, this tutorial will have you creating bullets like a pro.

Required Materials for Bullet Crafting

Before you start crafting, you’ll need to gather three essential components:

Bullet tips

Bullet casings

Gunpowder

Make sure to collect a few of each material for demonstration and practice purposes.

Making Gunpowder

Gunpowder is a crucial ingredient that requires two base materials:

Coal

Nitrate

You’ll also need fuel to power your crafting stations. If you have fuel stored in your forge, gather it and transfer it to your chemistry station for the gunpowder creation process.

Once you’ve placed the coal and nitrate into your chemistry station with fuel, the gunpowder will craft automatically. You can create as much gunpowder as you have materials for, making this station essential for large-scale ammunition production.

Crafting Specific Ammunition Types

7.62 Ammunition Example

Let’s walk through crafting 7.62 ammo, which is ideal for tactical assault rifles. For each round of 7.62 ammunition, you’ll need:

1 bullet tip

3 gunpowder

1 bullet casing

Head to your chemistry station to collect the gunpowder you’ve already crafted, then return to your workbench to combine all three components.

At the workbench, you can craft as many rounds as your materials allow. Simply select the ammunition type and confirm your crafting order.

Summary

Crafting ammunition in 7 Days to Die is a straightforward two-station process. First, use your chemistry station to convert coal and nitrate into gunpowder. Then, take that gunpowder to your workbench along with bullet tips and casings to create finished rounds. With these steps mastered, you’ll always have the ammo you need for any weapon in your arsenal.
