It was discovered whilst I was on Woods doing the tasks "They Are Already Here" where I grab the note from the cultist room at sunken village and "Proper Comeback" where I plant golden roosters on Prapors Wi-Fi camera spots. After planting the golden rooster I decided to risk breaking my legs to jump down the hard way to the old paracord extract bivouac. On top of the sleeping bag was this box of legendary ammunition. It's statistics are quite insane, considering that the only gun in game which can chamber it is Brandon Hereras' legendary AK-50. Consider me shocked by this ammunition as it officially has the highest penetration and velocity in the game. (bonus image of my kills that raid after successfully extracting with both tasks done)
yup im lvl53 and havent seen a box yet
I’ll find boxes of this ammo pretty often I have almost 2 rows of my stash that’s just slap ammo
Check that sniper rock bivouac and other woods ammo spawns
The new camp on interchange
Which one?
Honestly any of the new camps is good. But the green flare extract camp has a ton of ammo spawns. I haven’t personally found any SLAP, but I have brought home a few boxes of M21 and .338 AP along with a basically unending supply of BP.
The one near flare extract. I think that I have found 4 boxes of this ammo there. I'm almost 42lvl, but you could say that I "main" Interchange, so it is a bit skewed.
I frequently find these in the MVD building where Kollontay spawns on Streets
The best part about it is that it often doesn't one shot people with a direct chest shot! It's just as bugged as .338 AP, people survive shots that should erase them from this plane of existence pretty consistently.
in that one lapua clip it's possible that the shot grazed the plate hitbox but didn't hit the actual thorax, gigabeef did a vid on it. Only the AAR damage report seems to be broken
lapua ammo isnt bugged people just dont know how hitboxes work in this game
I shot a PMC wearing level 4 plates multiple times directly in the chest with .50 BMG M21. 45 pen, 220 damage, and he took 5 shots before dying.
I've shot someone dead in the chest this wipe with SLAP and they didn't die. If it wasn't bugged, they should've be dead regardless of the armor they are wearing.

how old is that clip lol
Old enough to not be applicable.
Version says 0.13.0.3.22 which would mean it's almost 3 years old
Are they that rare?? I have 30 rounds in the stash right now. Would have been 40 but i died to an extract camper. Found all of them on Customs.
screenshot for proof?
I have no idea how to attached it
believable
They aren’t rare I have nearly 100 rounds
That's why I hate using Tarkov Tracker. I am selling a ton of valuable shit without knowing.
Stopped playing about two years ago. What shoots .50 cal?
.50 AK
Wait. Like. The Brandon Herrera one?!?!
That would be correct
Just seen another post. Looks like true M16s are in as well. Might have to redownload and dust off the old hideout lol.
The gun is locked behind level 44 and a pretty fun quest. Afaik there's no other way to get the gun (outside of other pmcs).
Think most I ever got to was lvl 40 once lol
I mean it's probably one of the strongest guns in the game and the ammo is easy to get.
I need a “Put a Thumb in it” t-shirt for my PMC now.
Currently sitting on 100 rounds, hoping I'll ever get a chance to use them. They're rare, but you can find them anywhere ammo spawns en masse. I think I've found most of mine on Interchange doing scrounge runs around the roads.
I found 3 boxes when scaving interchange
I found a lot on interchange at the new camps.
You killed Re3MR, he makes those badass Tarkov maps!
Wonder if it’s just a guy with the same name. Re3mr has said on posts with his maps that he doesn’t play the game, just likes putting together the maps.
It's PvE, so they use random names from the community, dev team, etc. That's the most notable one I've seen.
I wanna see slap rounds vs shadow of tagilla. I know .338 isn’t enough body damage to take them easily. Wonder what 2 or 3 of these to the face will do
They should have added a small percentage chance for it to blow up in your face. As a tribute.
I found a box early on crazy specs will live in stash forever
They were very common early wipe in PVP. Sold like 200 of them to prapor for ez money. Pretty rare now
I've seen four boxes this wipe, one on a dead scav on the second day, one at the woods shack with ammo, and two on a customs raid next to the MGs on the fort. every time I've found one I got tapped in the head a few seconds later by a 15+ k/d player
Ahh good catch, didn’t see the PvE tag lol
