Effective chance calculations are based off of default 'apocalypse' loot settings, with no luck modifier, and average zombie density. The higher the density of zombies in an area, the higher the effective chance of an item spawning. Chance is also influenced by the lucky and unlucky traits. Duplicate entries do exist, but have been removed for clarity.

.308 rounds are most commonly found inside gun cases and weapons lockers, however, they may also be found in the trunks of police vehicles. They may also be found inside gun stores, medical centers^[verify] and even on zombies.

Trivia

The .308 rounds seen in game are loosely based on the real-life Winchester .308 round. This round is one of the most common rounds for hunting rifles.
