[QUOTE="evilbob, post: 3461567, member: 9789"] The appropriate crafting check for arrows is "fletching." That said, I would personally allow craft(weaponsmithing) to make swords, bows, arrows, bolts, or any other weapon-like object, just because crafting skills suck and there are far too many of them that are far too specific to be useful. I don't know if there is a specific DC anywhere, but I would say DC 10 for normal arrows and DC 15 for masterwork. That kind of falls in line with "typical" or "high-quality" items. You could make the normal arrow DC 12 if you thought it'd be more like a regular weapon, as opposed to item. The DC 10 option allows it to be made by anyone with a 10 in Int, however, since you can take 10 on crafting checks (when you're not distracted, anyway). Edit: To answer your OP more specifically, I would use the same rule for bullets, and I agree that you'd make them in batches of 20 (arrows or bullets or whatever). It'd take a week regardless, though, at least according to the RAW. Edit: No, wait - the rules say if the craft check x the DC (total of 10 x 10 = 100) is double or triple the cost in silver, then you can speed up your process. I think. God these rules are weird. Anyway, I think what it's saying is that if you take 10 on a DC of 10 to make arrows, which are worth 1g (10sp) for 20, then you could do it in 1/10th of a week, or basically about half a day. Now THAT seems reasonable. [/QUOTE]
