Exactly what it says in the title
I accidently cut up my bullwhip when messing around and got this thing
It was accurized if that makes any difference.

I can confirm that “placeholder ammunition” is in some way associated with bullwhips.
I constructed and deconstructed few bullwhips and I ended up with placeholder ammunition in my inventory.

Bullwhips use it because they’re technically a ranged weapon with unlimited ammo. Any reach weapon would probably have a similar effect.
I suppose seeing the placeholder is a bug, and I’ll thank you for the report.
Update: Rivet’s posted a fix and I expect to land it shortly. Go Rivet!
