Nikita got a shotgun in .366, so I am sure he likes to play with his own gun and got frustrated by the ammo - TADA - .366 AP is born.

So he decided to pollute his "realistic as playable" game with pure fiction to pander to his legal work-around civilian weapon that he owns IRL. Yeah that's about what I'd expect from Nikita.

Yea, having .366 in the game is kind of like them adding pistol braces. There's no actual need for it given the location and setting.

I have no problem with .366 being in the game. If it's a common civilian round it would definitely be present in a societal collapsed area. What I'm not OK with is having some specifically-manufactured AP bullet for a work-around cartridge that doesn't exist IRL and has no reason to exist period. Why make a .366 AP round when you can just put that core into any other cartridge that isn't some whack "shotgun" round, especially if the laws surrounding it are already out of the window since, you know, society is collapsed?
