Template:L for Template:Ls. Can be made from Template:L, Template:L, certain Template:Ls.
Wooden bolts produce a Template:L of 25 per Template:L.
Making bone bolts will take only one bone away from a stack and turn it into 5 bolts.
Wooden and bone bolts are made in a Template:L.
Bugs
Tests show that bone and wooden bolts are effective against most[Verify] unarmored targets, like wildlife, but for various reasons are quite useless against some other creatures and armored targets.
The same goes for some metal bolts (silver,copper) with variations depending on the precise metal.needs more details
Additionally a bug often seems to prevent military from equipping bolts, then limiting the use of bolts to hunting and weapon traps. However, people have also reported successful equipping of bolts (and arrows). More importantly though, marksdwarves refuse to use bolts for ranged combat in fortress mode. (FIXED as of v0.31.10)
Bone bolts are not advisable for weapon traps as only a stack of 5 will be stored per crossbow, making frequent restocking necessary.
It is largely unclear what of the above constitutes a bug and what is intended behaviour.
