Shotgun Shells, or Ammo, are the ammunition for the Double-barrel shotgun.
A maximum of 2 shells can be loaded into the double-barrel by pressing the "E" key. The amount of ammo by default in the Double-barrel is dependent of how many Shells the Nutcracker had in it before death.
Using[]
- When reloading a Double-Barrel successfullly, a shell will disappear in item bar.
- Pushing the reload key once will only reload one shell.
- When you try to reload the shotgun when the magazine is full (2 shells) nothing will happen.
- If you have two or more Double-barrels in your hotbar, you can only reload the first Double-barrel. It is not confirmed whether it is a bug or Zzeekers's intention to do so.
- Visually, it is impossible to confirm how many shells are left in the magazine.
- The only way to confirm how many shells are left in the magazine is to reload when there are shells in the item bar.
- If nothing happens, that proves the magazine is full with 2 shells.
- If it does the reload animation, you can confirm the amount of shells in magazine visually.
- The only way to confirm how many shells are left in the magazine is to reload when there are shells in the item bar.
Spawns[]
The spawn chance of Shotgun Shells is the same as Nutcracker on every moon. However, Nutcracker has a spawn limit of 10, so the maximum amount of Shotgun Shells is limited to twenty and twenty in a Double-Barrel.
| Moon | Base Spawn Chance |
|---|---|
| 85-Rend | 25.91% |
| 44-Liquidation | 13.3% |
| 8-Titan | 12.59% |
| 7-Dine | 12.27% |
| 68-Artifice | 8.81% |

Note[]
- You can get at least 2 shells, at most 4 shells from killing Nutcracker.
- Killing Nutcracker must drop 2 shells, and a Double-Barrel will have 0-2 shells depending on when you killed the Nutcracker.
- You can get at most 40 shells in one moon because the max spawn of Nutcracker is 10, though your best chances for this would be Rend.
