Title says it all. Oh, and there were plenty of bone bolts to be had.

Is there reason hunter shouldn't use adamantine bolts? I don't see a bug here...

I thought they were supposed to prefer cheaper bolts.

I've only ever heard of training soldiers doing that- my hunters always go out fully tooled up.  You know, in case those groundhogs turn nasty.

That's practicing marksdwarves. Hunters and on-duty marksdwarves will use whatever  the best bolt is that's available. If you don't want them using something, forbid it.

Yeah.   I've started to notice a lot of people calling "The game did something I don't like!" a bug.

This isn't a bug, just forbid them I guess.
