Where to find 10rd VSD Mag in DayZ
10rd VSD Mag is the in-game name; server files such as types.xml call it Mag_SVD_10Rnd.
On Chernarus, the economy keeps about 4 on the map and spawns more when fewer than 2 are left, after waiting 1 h. Each one lasts 8 h when nobody touches it. It spawns in Military places. It also comes from dynamic events such as helicopter crashes.
On Livonia, the economy keeps about 6 on the map and spawns more when fewer than 4 are left, after waiting 1 h. Each one lasts 8 h when nobody touches it. It spawns in Military places. It also comes from dynamic events such as helicopter crashes.

On Nasdara, the economy keeps about 5 on the map and spawns more when fewer than 2 are left, after waiting 30 min. Each one lasts 8 h when nobody touches it. It spawns in MilitaryEast places, in Tier2, Tier3 and Unique.

- Military bases, camps and checkpoints (Military)
