The .357 Magnum Round is a loose handgun cartridge. Two guns fire it: the Patrol Revolver and the L92 Carbine. One supply of rounds serves a handgun and a long gun.
Loose .357 Magnum Rounds come from opening a Box of .357 Magnum Rounds. One box holds 50 rounds. The rounds can also be packed back into a box for storage. The Veteran is the best occupation for ammo. It starts with the most Reloading skill. The Police Officer also starts with some Reloading skill.
Uses
Besides loading the Patrol Revolver and the L92 Carbine, the .357 Magnum Round has two other uses. The Pack Ammo in Box recipe turns 50 loose rounds back into one Box of .357 Magnum Rounds. A full box keeps a stockpile tidy in a container. The Gather Gunpowder recipe breaks rounds down into Gunpowder. That powder goes into the Pipe Bomb and the crafted Firecracker.

Locations
Loose .357 Magnum Rounds come off zombies dressed as state police. About one state police zombie in eighteen carries a few rounds. The rounds sit in the zombie's clothing and show up when the body is looted. That makes state police zombies worth searching after every kill. The same outfit can also carry .38 Special, .44 Magnum and .45 ACP Rounds.

| Location | Container | Chance |

| Any building | Zombie wearing a police state outfit | 5.5% |
