Ammo and Class Ranges
In Call of the Wild the ammo, not the gun, decides what you can take: each load is rated for a band of animal classes. Use a load inside the animal’s class to pass the harvest check and keep the trophy.
| Load | Class range | Classes | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| .22 Mag Jacketed Hollow-Point / Hollow-Point | 1-2 | Expanding: big wound, best on broadside shots | |
| 12 GA Birdshot | 1 | Birds and small game | |
| 12 GA Buckshot | 2-5 | Close-range small to medium game | |
| 12 GA Slug | 4-8 | Bigger animals at short to medium range |
Notes: Break-action two-barrel rifle/shotgun; hold reload to switch ammo.

How to Use the Cassidy Combination Gun
- Switch shells to fit the animal: birdshot for birds and small game, buckshot for close medium game, slugs for bigger animals at short to medium range.
- With birdshot, swing through the bird and keep the gun moving as you fire; most misses are behind.
- Keep slug and buckshot shots close. Shotgun loads lose energy fast past their effective range.
- Carry two shell types so you can take whatever walks into a zone.
- Big game: it reaches class 8, so it can stop dangerous animals. Keep a follow-up shot ready on bears, big cats and buffalo.
- Small game: its lightest load covers class 1, so it doubles as a small-game gun without ruining pelts.
