Find .308 ammo

[Forsaken Wolf]

Hello, I am looking to farm a lot of .308 ammo, any ideas anyone?

from wiki:

Dropped sometimes by feral ghouls.
Dropped by Scorched and Huntersville super mutants that wield hunting rifles.

Nice players giving them for free :)

My advice is to stop using the standard .308 rounds. If you are using a hunting/sniper rifle, change its receiver to fire .50 cal rounds. If you are using the might machingun, change its receiver to the prime receiver to fire ultracite .308 rounds. These rounds are much easier to craft and you shouldn't be having any ammo issues again.

If you don't have the plans, I can craft the receivers for you.

If you would be so kind to craft them, would you want something in return for that?

fyi Super mutants are a pretty good source for .308 ammo :)

You just need to forget about that offer.

What he aint telling you is that you MUST know one of the two .308 receivers (Hunting rifle or LMG) in order to unlock crafting ultracite .308 ammo.

So a receiver that uses ammo you can not craft is how useful?

As for farming .308 ammo.
1. Make your own (Excavator+Lucky Hole Mine to mine lead, farms crickets and bears for acid, Collision Course for cloth.)

2. Farm Morgantown scorched and Toxic Valley super mutants. Preferably using some crappy secondary weapon (maybe even one you need a Atom challenge done with.)

3. Buy it from vending machines for 1 cap = 1 bullet.
