Rifle Ammo Mutation is an assault rifle mod that converts any unused ammo type into Rifle Ammo. The affected rifle will only convert ammo while equipped, and will not convert any ammo type used by holstered secondary weapons until their own ammo is full.
Converted ammo is denoted by a 
symbol. The final amount of ammo restored is rounded to the nearest integer.

Acquisition[]
- This mod was originally awarded to players who participated in Operation Sling-Stone.
- This mod is now available from Survival and Excavation missions.
Tips[]
- Good for weapons with poor ammo economy, such as the
Grakata. - Functions well with Sentinel's Vacuum or Chesa Kubrow's Retrieve, which automatically collect unused ammo as needed.
- Scavenger mods affect the amount of ammo mutated. For example, if Shotgun Scavenger is active, converted Shotgun Ammo will be increased from 15 to 38.
