Lots of vendors sell .45 ammo. I'm not sure why you would be having trouble unless you got the Overseer's Guardian at a really low level and vendors just aren't stocking the normal range of ammo.

Convert it to .308 it does alot more damage so you use less ammo.

Raiders often use combat rifles, they will have .45 cal ammunition. Also Raiders can spawn with .45cal variants of the Pipe Rifle and Pipe Pistol as well. So if you want to farm NPCs for .45cal ammo, Raiders are your best bet.
Triggermen, if your computer can handle it download common wealth war mod. You'll have more people to farm.

I would highly recommend scrounger perk, it makes a huge difference in the amount of ammo you find even at the first rank.

Also and this is just my personal opinion: its better to have weapons that use different ammo, so you can switch out as needed when really low on one ammo type.

So .308 is the best ammo for this gun?

And if I have the Reba 2 is it worth having with .308?
Reba will do more dage with .50, but I prefer Combat Sniper Rifles in .308 to Sniper Rifles for DPS, especially at higher levels.

Diamond City and Goodneighbor are really the best place to get it, or you can build your own vendors in settlements if you have the right perks unlocked.

Weapon workbench, needs Gunsmith 3 if I remember right. It's the top-level receiver.

ok so these are the weapons i use

10mm pistol, focused institute rifle, le fusil terribles, long gamma gun, overseers guardian, reba 2, and i have the gainer, i am also planning on getting the spray pray

so out of these guns what kind of ammo should i make them use or what should i do?

im so lost in this game
I'd only carry 2 or 3 weapons at once for weight purposes. I prefer having a pistol, a snipe rifle, and a close-combat weapon all in different calibers so I don't run out of all my ammo at once.

Current setup is a Mighty .44 Pistol, .308 Two-Shot Combat Sniper Rifle, and a Wounding Combat Shotgun.
