How to get it

Leon and Helena, Leon Chapter 4 (4-1 Inside the Airplane): in the cockpit, on the floor by the co-pilot's seat, next to the dead pilot. There's .50 Action Express Magnum Ammo on both sides of the cockpit. It's its only spot and it only appears if you don't already have it: take it before you chase the Lepotitsa. If you miss it, replay checkpoint 4-1 from chapter select and wait for a save before you quit the game.

Verdict

Leon's boss gun: save its ammo for the airplane Lepotitsa, the Rasklapanje and Simmons' forms.

  • It knocks down anything it hits; its Quick Shot sends lesser enemies flying.
  • Ammo is scarce: don't spend it on stray zombies.
  • In the cockpit (4-1) it kills the Lepotitsa fast if you don't miss.
  • Leon Chapter 5: keep rounds for Simmons' last phases.
  • Magnum Ammo Pickup Increase (25,000 SP) raises what drops. Magnum Master (800 kills) and Infinite Magnum (99,000 SP) are the late-game combo.
  • The Mercenaries: Chris (default) and Sherry (default); its ammo never drops there.
