So, sounds like I have to pre-load what alchemical shot I want in my guns ready to use. Thanks.

Hmmm...true for level 1 formula's you get. Assume true if you buy higher. However, that still does not answer the true question on "USE" of the ammo. Hoping someone will pipe up with an answer to that.

I am seeking clarification on the above and it's application to play with the created item from the formula. So let's posit it as a practical application:
1. I am a gunslinger pistoliero, level 12.
2. I have alchem crafting feat and the formula to make "Exsanguinating Ammunition (greater)". I spend the time, pay the 80gp costs for reagents, and successfully craft the dose of ammo.
3. in play, I want to "use" the ammo. My assumption is the following on action costs and processes:
A - pay 1 action to ACTIVATE (manipulate) the ammo. I expend the alchemical ammo for Exsanguinate - greater.
B - then, pay 1 action to SHOOT a pistol at the target with the activated exsanguinating ammunition. I expend the shot, if I hit, then...
C - the round does it's normal damage PLUS the Exsanguinating part.

Is this correct? Or would I have had to actually activate Exsanguinating Ammo, then, then LOAD that ammo piece, then shoot?
Or am I missing something more fundamental?

My order #4860441 shows on your site as having SHIPPED by Amazon on July 13 and is showing as "complete". I have YET to receive the playtest books from Amazon. I have read your notice regarding Amazon issues, but I'm curious as to why my order is "showing as shipped and complete" when it hardly is complete.
