The .44 Magnum Round is a loose handgun cartridge. Two pistols fire it: the B-F Pistol and the Magnum. The B-F Pistol feeds from a B-F Magazine, while the Magnum takes the rounds straight into its cylinder.
Loose .44 Magnum Rounds come from opening a Box of .44 Magnum Rounds. One box holds 20 rounds, which is fewer than the 50 in other pistol boxes. The rounds can 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 B-F Pistol and the Magnum, the .44 Magnum Round has two other uses. The Pack Ammo in Box recipe turns 20 loose rounds back into one Box of .44 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 .44 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, .357 Magnum and .45 ACP Rounds.

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