How do I get more ammo for the Pulse Rifle?

I am looking and find some type of ammo but can't pick it up. Is there a trick?

Don't use any legendary weapon such as Hudson's pulse rifle, as those are harder to locate ammo for. When firing weapons, use short controlled bursts just like in the movies to control your ammo consumption rate.

A good habit to get into is after finding ammo and replenishing both your primary and secondary weapon, fire off only one shot (not one volley) from each so they'll always be "in need" of restocking. This will ensure that ammo always spawns reliably at the next preset checkpoints and depots. I do this all the time and never run out of ammo, even in Ultimate Bada$$ mode. Be certain to click Reload after firing the shots so both weapons each register one round short, and do that before moving to the next checkpoint.

Are you playing a standard vanilla or modded game?

Just TemplarGFX's ACM Overhaul.

I ask because there may be an ammo limiter in the modded games including the Overhaul to make the game more exiting, but this is merely conjecture on my part because I haven't played any of the modded games yet. Are you using standard weapon or the Legendary?

Can just anyone post here? Is there an IQ requirement?

Just the default Pulse rifle and the one that shoots grenades. Right now all I have are grenades and I kill myself with close shots.
So in the beginning, do I have the Pulse rifle and the Assault rifle?

If you're starting from a brand new game, then yes. I usually have the standard shotgun as a secondary weapon instead of the Assault Rifle. Use my "One Round Down" method so ammo will be visible when you need it.
