I've now incorporated the errata into my BT rulebooks.
Aside from the fact, that even the errata need errata, there is something that puzzles me:
The Protomech Ammunition Weight Table in TM p. 88 is expanded (?) with the weight of LB-10X-, UAC/10-, Gaussrifle- and HAG/20-ammo.
So why are there ammo weights for weapons that are heavier than even the heaviest Protomech?
I think that is simply an error but maybe i'm just overlooking something.

Perhaps they want to allow protos to work as ammo carriers?

Found out why:
| wrote: | Ultraheavy ProtoMechs (Ultras)
Pushing ProtoMech design techniques to their limits, Ultraheavy ProtoMechs can reach a maximum weight of 15 tons (15,000 kilograms), overlapping the tonnage of Ultralight BattleMechs. Achieving this without using BattleMech-scale components—including gyros—meant creating a larger control system based around a modified PA(L) suit. In addition to giving the Ultra the same flexibility of control, this suit-based cockpit and control unit doubles as an escape system for ProtoMech warriors, something not possible for lighter, standard-weight ProtoMechs. |
The source is unknown atm but was found on battletech.com.

Ah, ok. Seems that only the ammo weight infos made it into the Errata
