Ammo perk tips and warnings

I literally just spent hours researching/testing this in game because I have noticed some funky things when it comes to total ammo I can hold. All I can really say is pay attention to the numbers for each gun and armor that gives you more capacity for it. What did I learn? 1 Running upgraded mag on my machine gun "The Swarm" is a good thing. (72 default mag/no perk, 109 default mag/with perk, 168 mag upgrade/no perk, 181 mag upgrade/with perk.) 2 Running upgraded mag on my fusion rifle "Final Rest II" is a bad thing. (27 default clip/no perk, 34 default clip/with perk, 25 clip upgrade/no perk, 31 clip upgrade/with perk.) 3 I get one less bullet for my shotgun "Invective" when using Queen's Gaurd Robes instead of Voidfang Vestments. 4 "3" is not true for my shotgun "The Comedian." 5 The ammo increase is different for apparently every single weapon. 6 I have no idea how Bungie came up with values for ammo capacity (most of them are not full clips or even nice ratios unless the clip is really small.) 7 You can't copy pasta from excel neatly into these GUI's (sorry for the format, I tried I promise.) 8 One can't really use "stacking" to describe using more than one ammo perk for the same gun, because it's not strict addition, (using boots and chest piece for my bad juju the bonuses are about 23% each and 46% together, for my rare pulse rifle the bonuses are 20.97% each, but together only 36.83%.)
