The rest of the ammo can be found either as drops from bosses or quest rewards.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------- e. Storage -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The other major part of the damage output is your quiver/ammo pouch, which in addition to reserving space exclusively for your ammo, adds to your ranged attack speed. At the start of the game, you receive a six-slot pouch/quiver that has a +10% ranged attack speed bonus. There are quests that offer better pouches and quivers as rewards, but Leatherworkers have the upper hand: they can craft their own. Here are the ones available to a Leatherworker.
AMMO POUCH LEVEL SLOTS ATTACK SPEED BONUS Small Leather Ammo Pouch none 8 +10% Heavy Leather Ammo Pouch 35 14 +12% Thick Leather Ammo Pouch 45 16 +13%
QUIVER LEVEL SLOTS ATTACK SPEED BONUS Light Leather Quiver none 8 +10% Heavy Quiver 35 14 +12% Quickdraw Quiver 45 16 +13%
The 16-slot containers will last you for a very long time if you craft it. The next step afterwards is a boss named Ribbly Screwspigot from Blackrock Depths, who has a chance to drop one these:
CONTAINER LEVEL SLOTS ATTACK SPEED BONUS Ribbly’s Bandolier 50 16 +14% Ribbly’s Quiver 50 16 +14%
Yet there’s still an even better container. By becoming Revered with the guys in Alterac Valley, you may purchase one of these:
CONTAINER LEVEL SLOTS COST SPEED Gnoll Skin Bandolier 55 16 10x AV Marks + 2250 Honor +15% Harpy Hide Quiver 55 16 10x AV Marks + 2250 Honor +15%
It’s a lot of work trying to get Revered with the Stormpike and Frostwolf factions but the payoff is well worth it. Once you’re far enough into the game, you have two more choices:
AMMO POUCH FACTION REP SPEED LEVEL SLOTS Smuggler’s Ammo Pouch The Consortium Honored +15% 68 18
QUIVER FACTION REP SPEED LEVEL SLOTS Worg Hide Quiver Kurenai [Alliance] Honored +15% 68 18 Clefthoof Hide Quiver The Mag’har [Horde] Honored +15% 68 18
As you can see, the two quivers are the same, differing only in name. Both the quiver and the ammo pouch can be bought from their respective quartermasters in Nagrand and Netherstorm.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------- f. Scopes -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
While melee weapons can be enhanced with the help of Enchanters, ranged weapons can receive similar treatment with the help of an Engineer. Players of that profession can craft a variety of scopes that can be attached to your weapon. Scopes can be attached to any ranged weapon, though it will never show on your weapon’s graphic. Here are the kinds of scopes that an Engineer can craft:
============================================================================= | NAME | LV.REQ | QUALITY | EFFECT | ============================================================================= | Crude Scope | 5 | Common | +1 Weapon Damage | | Standard Scope | 10 | Common | +2 Weapon Damage | | Accurate Scope | 20 | Common | +3 Weapon Damage | | Deadly Scope | 30 | Common | +5 Weapon Damage | | Sniper Scope | 40 | Common | +7 Weapon Damage | | Biznicks 247x128 Accurascope | 50 | Rare | +30 Ranged Hit Rating | | Adamantite Scope | 55 | Uncomm | +10 Weapon Damage | | Khorium Scope | 55 | Rare | +12 Weapon Damage | | Stabilized Eternium Scope | 60 | Rare | +28 Crit Rating | =============================================================================
Since Blizzard is always adding new content to the game, you’ll never know what other kinds of scopes will show up in the future.

------- Librams -------
When you reach your 50’s, you’ll find a series of books called Librams. They may appear useless at first but if you hand them in to specific NPC’s along with a few other materials, they give an item called an Arcanum that applies an Enchant to your Helm or Leggings. Some of the materials aren’t easy to find but they’re not terribly difficult either. They’re repeatable so as you find new gear, you may continually hand in more Librams for more Arcanum.
For Hunters, you’ll want the Libram of Voracity. The Arcanum that this book yields adds +8 of any one stat to Helm or Leggings and the one stat you’ll want is the +8 Agility. For this Libram, you’ll need the following:
