The Carton of 12g Rounds is a bulk carton of ammunition. It holds twelve of the Box of 12g Rounds packed together. The rounds inside load the Double Barrel Shotgun, the JS-2000 Shotgun, the JS-3T Tactical Shotgun, the Sawed-off Double Barrel Shotgun and the Sawed-off JS-2000 Shotgun. A full carton weighs 15, so it is a stock item for a base rather than a load for a run.
It can be packed by hand from twelve boxes, and it also turns up in army storage. Opening it gives the twelve boxes back. 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 Carton of 12g Rounds is a storage item. The Pack 12 Boxes in Carton recipe turns twelve of the Box of 12g Rounds into one carton. The Open Carton recipe splits it back into twelve boxes. Packing ammunition this way keeps a stockpile in one inventory slot. The same recipes also pack Box of Nails and Box of Screws into their own cartons. Open the carton before a trip and carry only the boxes needed.

Notes
- A carton takes one slot instead of twelve, which keeps base storage tidy.
- At a weight of 15, a full carton is heavy to carry on foot.
- One carton feeds every gun that takes 12g rounds, so it suits a base with more than one of them.
- Army storage is worth a look for several kinds of ammunition carton at once.
