It's SUPPOSED to be an enchanted ammunition that is available in different types for each specific weapon. Unfortunately as it currently coded in D&D beyond, it currently only has 1 entry and is listed as a "weapon (Blowgun)" rather than "Ammunition".
In reality you should be able to pick from any ammunition type which is available to be Walloping Ammunition.
The recent "Avren the Artificer" video highlighted the fact that this is STILL an issue to the point where even Todd and Jim think walloping ammo is just for blowguns.
This issue was identified in October of 2018. I was rather surprised today to discover that it still isn't fixed yet given it is a content issue. Can the team comment on why this hasn't been fixed yet and when they intend to address it?
This looks more link an oversight more than a bug per se.
But the Walloping Ammunition only seems to come in a blowgun variant and can't be stacked.
This is awkward because my DM has given me 12 Walloping arrows and I can't represent that in my inventory very easily at the moment.
Hmmmm, Walloping Ammunition from Xanathar's Guide to Everything seems to have been configured as a Blowgun, rather than ammunition, which is very odd!
I'll check with staff how we can get this fixed, but it will probably not be until Monday.

That's great, thank you :)
This issue has still not been resolved. Using a homebrew variant for the time being.
It appears to be the case with the Unbreakable Arrow being categorized as a longbow as well.
November 2019 still have the same issue
Came here to say the same thing. :)
With Artificers' access to this as an infusion, would love to be able to infuse Arrows, Crossbow Bolts, and other ammunition as well.
Also echoing the same issue. This is more relevant now that Artificers are live.
It does show correctly in the description in https://www.dndbeyond.com/sources/xgte/common-magic-items but still not in https://www.dndbeyond.com/magic-items/walloping-ammunition . Seems fine in the (Android) app as well, fwiw.
It's 2020, Artificers are here, I'd like to use this with my Artificer please!
Still not quite sure on this one. Is this a type of ammo I can load into all weapons going forward? Or a blowgun that fires this weird type of ammo?
I wanna be able to load this ammo into my repeating shot crossbow but I dont know how many I have/get...or if its even ammo thanks to description!

Yup, Walloping Ammunition is still a Blowgun, and Unbreakable Arrow is still a Longbow.

Still an issue... fix please?
It was already fixed. That’s why you can add a Walloping Arrow to your character sheet.
