Ammunition

Yes the mags work with both ammos. You can not tell the difference in the two by looking at them.

There are two magazine sizes for the Clock 17. A 10 round and a 17 round. If you put one in the chamber it can hold either 11 rounds or 18 rounds.

No. Only use what is stamped on the barrel.

There are several dozens of different types of bullets. Remember that a bullet is the part of a CARTRIDGE that is fired out of the barrel. If you were asking about different cartridges, there are thousands of different ones.

The .22 caliber bullet is ABOUT .22 inches wide. A .32 bullet is about .32 inches wide. The bullet will also be heavier due to size.

Yes

Mine likes 165gr Nosler partitions, 168gr SMK and Federal 180gr power points. I reached 400 yards within 4 inches consistently today with all 3 rounds.

Yes. Keep it in a secure location (LOCKED) and in a cool dry location. Military ammo cans are well suited for storage. Ammunition is less of a fire and explosion hazard than the can of gasoline for the lawn mower.

5 yr minimum

No. Only use what is stamed on the barrel.

21. That's federal law, and applies to ALL states.

Shotshells were not created until after the 1860s. First shells were all metal. Later shells had a brass head, and paper body, and could be any of several colors-

.38 S&W. This is NOT .38 Special.

Nothing.

No

Practice

The .45 caliber bullet is not used in a sniper rifle.

No one answer. There are dozens of different .44 caliber cartridges, and hundreds of different loadings of those cartridges. A rifle will have a different velocity than a handgun. This is sort of like "how fast can a V8 car go?"

Typically the best ammo for your Windicator is what shoots best in it.There are many different brands and weight of ammo available for you to try.I find that most every firearm likes one or two loads the best.It will be up to you to find out.If you do reload centerfire ammo then it is really enjoyable to try different weight bullets and powder combinations to bring out the best of your firearm in terms of accuracy and velocity.

Yes. Shooting a lot will accelerate wear on the gun, but occasional use is OK.

Hollow point ammunition is not specially banned by name by the Geneva Convention. However,

HR Article 23 Paragraph (e) states : "It is especially forbidden to employ arms, projectiles, or material calculated to cause unnecessary suffering." US DoD interpretation of this article (FM 27-10, Law of Land Warfare, paragraph 34(b)) states: "… the illegality of the use of barbed lances, irregular shaped bullets and projectiles fill with glass, the use of any substance on bullets that would tend unnecessarily to inflame the wounds inflicted by them, and the scoring of the surface or filing off the ends of the hard cases of bullets."

So interpretation if hollow point bullets meet the criteria set forth under "filing off the ends of the hard cases of bullets" as mentioned above. Of note, in the 1990s, some DoD SJA members noted that hollow point may be used in some counter-terrorism cases as non-state actors in those events are not signatories to the Hague or Geneva Conventions.

The Hague Convention of 1899, Declaration III, prohibits the use in international warfare of bullets which easily expand or flatten in the body.

The crucial point is "warfare".

They are legal for hunting and in some situations (inside an aircraft as an example, self defence and law enforcement) where it is preferential to contain the round.

Typically not. When you see a scene in a movie where someone ignites a fire with a gun, it is the heat from the bullet that starts it not sparks. Bullets are generally made up of either lead, or a lead core surrounded by copper. To use anything that would create a spark would tear up a gun barrel in no time.
