Getting Ammo off Enemy Corpses

Trust us when we say that it really won’t take long for you to come across some hostiles in Far Cry New Dawn.

This will ‘loot’ their body, adding any ammo and other belongings they had on them to your inventory. It’s the best way to get ammo in a pinch out in Far Cry New Dawn’s wilderness.
