.308 Hand Load not working in Automatic Rifle

Post » Fri May 27, 2011 4:16 am

I would like to start out by saying that I love Dead Money and have been having a blast playing through it a second time, this time with my Guns-focussed character. This is significantly harder than my Melee run, which makes it even more fun for me.

For reference, I'm playing on a 360.

That said, I managed to get to level 32 and finally get a new Perk, which ended up being Hand Loader, since I didn't want to have ammo issues. At the Police Station ammo bench, I rejiggered all my ammo to .357 JSP Hand Load and .308 JSP Hand Load for my Police Pistol and Automatic Rifle, respectively. After triggering the Gala, I figured I'd better put all my chips on the table, so I broke out the ol' BAR. The game doesn't seem to naturally load special ammo even if you don't have any of the normal stuff, so I went to manually load the Hand Load stuff in. The option for the Hand Load was highlighted, but when I pushed the A button, it made the clicking noise but didn't load the ammo.

I couldn't even switch back to normal loads, because you can't break down special ammo. Needless to say, relying on a pistol to fight multiple Ghost People simultaniously wasn't as much fun as mowing them down with a machine gun.

Please look into this problem! Thank you!
