It can stop charges very easily.
Makes those annoying jockeys way easier targets.
Im not sure but i think it inflicts more damage, so it also help with tanks.

^ This, fire ammo is alright I guess, but this is why I'm not even bothered by fire ammo, explosions FTW!!

Explosive Ammo is the best. It causes SI to Stumble.

Fire Ammo, just sets everything alight for a short duration. essentially drops a dot on the SI. Works ok with tanks, as it sets him alight for a short duration.

Just like everything in that games, and like someone else said, pros and cons.
Fire = best from common infected, and a Tank if you've got no molotov. I might annoy the SI but in most cases you might catch a hunter on fire, he'll pounce you, and you've got a flaming hunter doing double damage on ya.
Explosive = good for common infected but definately more effective on the SI. Anything that causes them to stumble is good because it just gives you the advantage of stoppin them in their tracks and obviously more damage, hence the reason I save my explosive ammo for the Specials.

I'm in the fire camp too. I like explosive rounds as well but there's nothing like lighting up a horde. Mucho satisfaction.
