Lever-Rifle Ammo (45-70)?

[Tesityr]

I just found a neat little Rifle that I've never seen before, one that is lever-reloaded (Lever Action, think Terminator 2, etc) - the thing is, it shows it needs "45-70" ammo, whateverthatis... lol

I have yet to see "45-70" ammo anywhere, is it something I have to craft myself?

I practiced some Google-Fu but nothing came out of the shadows...

Far Harbor shops.
Unfortunately lever action is not that useful of a weapon :(

Vendors in Far Harbor.

Unless you mod, the ammo only appears in Faw Hawba.

But, there are several mods that bring it to the commonwealth, the way it should be!

Dang it, why didn't these come up in MY searching? lol late night searching is not as good I suppose...

Thank you very much all. I did recently get FH DLC on a Sale... Pizza for everyone!

You're welcome.

Here's the wiki Fallout 4 items page that has an index with links to all[most] things Fallout 4.

I got a really good level action in nuka word and could not find ammo. Googled it and saw it was a FH ammunition. I just rocked up there two days ago and I have a ton of it. I'd already found most far harbor legendary weapon variants whilst doing Nuka world. Funnily enough.

its a far harbor gun, the same happens with the handmade rifle on nuka world, can only get the 7.62 ammo for it on the nuka world market

its just another thing that bethesda overlooked, should have made the ammo available everywhere.

speaking of guns btw, I don't activate the DLC's on a new playthrough until much later, reason for this is it makes it easier to get the explosive efffect weapons on the legendary weapon pool, If you activate the DLC's early it adds to the legendary pool and makes it harder to get them

I too felt that it should then appear 'everywhere' after getting the NW DLC (7.62 is crazy sparse unless you are in NW itself yes)

== SOME LIGHT NUKA WORLD SPOILERS BELOW ==

but then I realized that 'the rest of the world' doesn't really know about the theme park (post-war population) or that it is up and running (pre and post war population), so I kind of see why it is only there in NW. You can put up Stores that sell it in Raider Outposts (if you go that route) and that helps a lot but I agree that it should become more widespread [as its' usage has risen?] outside of Nuka-World, after the DLC is complete/played.

the odd thing is that i found one NOT in far harbor, but on a legendary enemy when in good neighbor. this makes sence

Legendary versions appear both in Far Harbor and in the Commonwealth, once Far Harbor is installed. - Fallout Wiki

I have gotten a couple as legendaries found in the Commonwealth.

While you are indeed correct, I doubt he waited 2 years for a reply. (The reason you can get legendary versions of them anywhere is that there is only one legendary item loot list, so any legendary weapon or armor can drop in any location. Normal versions can not.)
