Quick Scoop

To craft **medium copper ammo** in _Once Human_ , you generally need to unlock the ammo crafting memetic, build a Supplies Workbench, make gunpowder, then combine gunpowder with copper ingots in the workbench for the ammo your weapon uses. The basic copper ammo recipe shown in current guides is typically **1 gunpowder + 3 copper ingots** , and the weapon-specific ammo type is selected from the weapon’s ammo customization menu.

How to make it

1. Unlock the crafting path for ammunition and build a Supplies Workbench at your base.

2. Craft gunpowder first; guides list it as 6 sulfur + 3 charcoal + 3 acid.

3. Smelt copper ore into copper ingots using a furnace.

4. Open the Supplies Workbench and craft the copper ammo type your gun requires.

Material loop

A simple early-game loop is: mine sulfur, gather wood for charcoal, loot acid from enemies or structures, then mine copper ore and smelt it into ingots. One guide also notes that copper ammo is a good starting ammo because the material cost is low. If your weapon is an SMG, sniper rifle, or pistol, the exact copper ammo name changes, but the crafting pattern stays similar.

Weapon-specific note

The ammo type must match the gun, so check the weapon’s ammo field or accessory/customization menu before crafting. For example, one current source lists **Copper SR Ammo** as **3 copper ingots + 1 gunpowder** , while another lists **Copper Pistol AP Ammo** with a different recipe that also includes Stardust Source. That means the exact “medium copper ammo” recipe can vary depending on the firearm and ammo tier.

Short version

If you want the fast version: unlock ammo crafting, build the Supplies Workbench, make gunpowder, smelt copper ingots, then craft the matching copper ammo for your weapon. For most basic copper ammo, expect a recipe centered on **gunpowder + copper ingots**.
