Can 38 Super Auto ammunition be fired in a 357 magnum revolver?
consider it`s a rimless round that`s going to want to drop deep in the chamber and won`t reliably fire in any case. If and when you do get a fire the bullet is smaller than expected in any .38 or .357 revolver so accuracy will be bad and the cases will split because they don`t fit properly, Besides super .38 Auto cartridges are more expensive

LC stand for Lake City Arsenal. Located at Independence, MO this plant was originally operated by Remington Arms Co. and much later by Olin-Winchester. Lake city was one of the first wave ordnance plants and operated from 1941 to 1945. It was reopened in 1951 and has since operated continuously to the present time, now known as Lake City Army Ammunition Plant (LCAAP). Lake City produced caliber 30, caliber 30 carbine, caliber 50, caliber 50 spotter-tracer, 7.62mm and 5.56mm ammunition in very large quantities. Also produced but in smaller quantities were caliber 38 revolver, 7.62 X 39mm, 20mm and 30mm ammunition. In 1985 the plant operations contract was reassigned to Olin-Winchester and in 1999 it was again reassigned to Alliant Techsystems (ATK).

How far will .45 caliber bullet travel?
In excess of 2 miles.
**********************************************************
The previous answer of 2 miles is a bit of crazy talk. If a .45 ACP handgun
is fired parallel to the ground it will hit the dirt 360 feet down range.
(Source: http://dsc.discovery.com/videos/mythbusters-dropped-vs-fired-bullet.html )
Now unless you are talking about unsafe practices just to set some kind of
a distance record such as firing high into the air on a mountain ridge with a 50
mph tail wind with hot loaded ammo, who knows, but I highly doubt it could reach
10,560 feet.............or 2 miles.
****************************************************************
The previous answer is correct- IF the .45 ACP is fired parallel to the ground- which rarely happens. The muzzle is elevated to raise the strike of the bullet. IF the muzzle is raised to a GREAT degree- around 45 degrees, the bullet will travel much further than 360 ft. About 2 miles. Not accurately, and at the end of flight does not have energy to penetrate a target.
