H.G. Bullets E (ハンドガンの強化弾, handogun no kyōkadan) are the enhanced ammunition for Jill's Samurai Edge in Resident Evil 3: Nemesis. They can also be used with Nikolai's SIGPRO in the The Mercenaries - Operation: Mad Jackal.

Gameplay

This ammunition is loaded to higher pressures, and thus more powerful than the standard pressure ammunition. This ammunition is referred to +P (higher than standard pressure) or +P+ (the pressure limit of the caliber). This special ammunition is created with the Reloading Tool. After creating handgun ammunition seven times, on the eighth time, Jill will be prompted if she wants to create the enhanced ammo. Nikolai can obtain this ammo by rescuing the hostages in the Mercenaries game.

In-game appearance

Enhanced ammo has a red color indicator of the amount of bullets on the inventory screen, while the standard has a green one. The new ammunition brand is "Black Taurus", this is a reference to Winchester's "Black Talon" ammunition line, which was very popular with law enforcement in the 1990s. However, it uses a bullet that closely resembles Remington's "Golden Saber" hollow point, another popular law enforcement ammunition. Maximum amount of ammo that one inventory slot can contain is 250.
