Console Command not working (additem) or working incorrectly

[Captain Calculated]

I've been trying to give one of my characters a lot of ammunition so I can have an evil psycho playthrough with a bunch of other crazy (goofy play) things occuring... anyhow I am using the player.additem code for the ammo and it goes through, it says .45 ( 9999) ammo added, so I go to my inventory and literally nothing is added. I was wondering if the ammo was placed somewhere else or if this is an unfortunate bug.

you probably picked the wrong ID for it, noticed ammo (and most weapons) have several listings, but only one will work.
type player.showinventory to show you that you do have those not functioning bullets in your pocket though.
player.removeitem [wrong id] [amount] to fix that part, now as to the ref ID for working bullets you look around a bit as I haven't got it handy
