The Box of .38 Special Rounds is a cardboard box that holds fifty .38 Special Round cartridges. It is ammunition storage for the SN38 Revolver. The revolver loads these rounds straight into its cylinder, with no magazine in between. The box keeps the whole stack together as one light item.
The box comes from opening a Carton of .38 Special Rounds, which holds twelve boxes. Fifty loose rounds can also be packed into a box at any time. 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
The box holds rounds until they are needed. The Open Box recipe empties it into fifty loose .38 Special Rounds, ready to load into the SN38 Revolver. The Pack Ammo in Box recipe packs fifty loose rounds back into a box. Twelve full boxes pack into a Carton of .38 Special Rounds for bulk storage. Packing and opening need no tools and no skill.

- Keep spare rounds boxed in storage and carry only what a trip needs.
- A Carton of .38 Special Rounds opens into twelve boxes at once.
