Increasing ballistic ammo count?

Is there a way to increase the amount off ballistic ammo you’re able to carry loaded into a ship? I outfitted about Andromeda with 4 s4 ballistic Gatling to see how it performs and I noticed that the ammunition count is a mere 500 per gun. I feel like when this same gun was on the nose of my warden it had a count in the thousands. Are there some sort of built in ammo crates in heavy fighters that I’m missing? You’d think a “gunship” would have a similar load

The UI on the MFD cuts it off. Those guns carry 5000 rounds in their magazine. I don't know if additional ammo modules are going to be implemented, but it'd be nice for ships that spend a lot of time away from resupply areas to be able to carry more.

It's 5k per gun but the UI cuts it off, I think.

Interesting update. Once in combat with the bounty and firing guns, the ammo count went up to 5000. Shredded through a Cat in about 30 seconds

There's a bug that sometimes cuts off the last 0. Had "400" rounds in my Hornet the other day till i fired a few and it showed 3900.

I agree, some ships run dry too quickly (Bucccaneer Size 4, MIS, and others).

The Revenant should have 5000 rounds. Pretty sure that the last digit clips off the MFD quite frequently. Did you try to actually fire the guns and check ammo count after? Or did you just look at the MFD and run to reddit?

Did you read any of the other comments before deciding to be condescending, or did you just go straight to being a dick? We’ve already solved this great mystery
