That bundle of bolt blueprints is awarded upon reaching level 3 trust, along with the "Ally" Outfit.

The blueprints are 'Green' rarity and listed in the 'Weapons' section of the blueprints instead of 'White' rarity which is what the basic bolt blueprint is.

Check your 'Green' rarity blueprints of your Weapons section to see if they are listed there for you.

The collectible item to unlock the outfit and the bundle of the blueprints are given at the same time and are given directly by the quest upon reaching that trust level. The items are consumed immediately and automatically to learn the blueprints and unlock the outfit.

I can't think of a scenario that could come about where the outfit could be unlocked and the blueprints not learned due to them being given to you in sequence and immediately one after the other in the code of that reputation quest chain.

It may be an odd bug and maybe related to what you were doing at the time that you reached that trust level. Perhaps there was something that interrupted the code being parsed like an oddly timed loading screen by exiting an instanced area, or even dying right when it was giving you the outfit and bundle of blueprints.

As you are beyond level 3 trust reputation, the acquisition of those blueprints is passed. There wouldn't be a way to correct it naturally such as losing reputation to go back down and then regaining that reputation level to get them given to you again.

To get those blueprints learned on your save game, you would likely need to acquire them manually via using a mod temporarily to get them to be learned.

If you are interested in correcting it via mod, I have a mod on NexusMods that would provide you with exactly this. If you install the mod's Data3.pak file to your game installation's 'DW' folder, all of the blueprints for the bolts will be available for you to take individually from any quartermaster. Other bow/crossbow related items and blueprints are added as well that you can take, but you can just ignore them if you would like and only take the three elemental bolt blueprints to manually have them learned on your save game. After you take the blueprints, you can leave the game and remove the mod's Data3.pak file again if you would like to no longer have the mod active on your game.

Maybe you have to talk to the quartermaster first? They are listed at the very top with my regular bolts and are white (at least the toxic/impact/stun are).

That's interesting. The blueprints are green rarity while the bolt ammo items they produce are white rarity. I must have missed the attribute of the blueprints to where they get listed under the rarity color of the item produced instead of their own rarity color. Thanks for noting that they are listed under the white blueprints!

The quest rewards are somewhat quest gated in that you need to pass through the story quests a certain amount before they are handed over to you. IIRC it's mainly the faceless acolyte showing up at the farm to talk to you. If you were like me and cleared most side content before advancing the mainline quests you could easily max trust before that point.
