Can you use 38 or 38 special bullet in a rifle?

To the best of my knowledge, no manufacturer has even made a .38 Special rifle, so no. .38 Special can be used in .357 Magnum revolvers, but that's because revolvers don't have a headspaced chamber - this cannot be done in firearms which have a headspaced chamber (as rifles typically do).

Rossi produces the Puma which is a .357/.38 lever action rifle . It is a copy of a Winchester 92 I think. Also marlin, and maybe even Henry have .357/.38 levers.

Can 38 special be shot in 357 mag Winchester?

In a lever action rifle? No, it's not recommended. .38 Special rounds are compatible with .357 revolvers because the cylinders aren't a formed chamber which requires proper headspacing. The .357 lever action rifle, however, does have a formed chamber designed specifically for the longer .357 Magnum cartridge. With a .38 Special round loaded into it, it won't achieve proper headspacing, causing a potentially catastrophic situation.

Can a 38 special kill a hog?

If you placed the shot right, then yes, it could. However, if I had to pick a round for that purpose, the .38 Special would not be it. If you're hunting wild hogs, or just trying to put down a domesticated one, you really need a rifle.


Can you use 38 special in 357 mag rifle?

Not recommended. Unlike a revolver, a .357 Magnum rifle will have a chamber measured out to achieve headspace with the .357 Magnum cartridge. When loaded with a .38 Special cartridge, proper headspace will not be achieved, and the potential for a catastrophic failure of the firearm - to the point even where it may cause serious injury or death to the firer - is greatly increased.
