Ammunition

38

See Related Links. It is eaiser and less expensive to buy one. Even if you have the materials, tools and know how, you have to ask yourself is it worth it. The ones being sold commercially have been designed and tested, run by product liability lawyers, etc..

You will have to experiment with as many different types as you can afford. It will show a preference for one or maybe two.

I like a hollow point.

Strictly speaking, it would be a magnum CARTRIDGE- bullet is the part of the cartridge that comes out of the muzzle. In champagne and wine, a magnum is a larger thna normal bottle. The term was borrowed by the firearms industry to indicate a larger, more powerful cartridge. Thus you have the .44 Special, and it's big bother, the .44 Magnum.

it all depends is it a gatling gun (about 2000 a min) or a 50 cal (about 300 min) or Metalstorm (about 2,000,000 a min)

38 SPECIAL IS ONE OF MANY HANDGUN CALIBERS MADE. THE +P DENOTES ADDITIONAL POWDER BRINGING THE 38 SPECIAL CLOSER IN POWER TO THE 357 MAGNUM CARTRIDGE. THIS HIGHER POWER ROUND OVERPOWERS MANY REVOLVERS AND SHOULD ONLY BE USED WITH THE GUN MANUFACTURES RECOMMENDATIONS, WHICH MIGHT BE LISTED ON THE GUN AS "38 SPL +P" IN NEWER REVOLVERS, OR BY CONTACTING THE MANUFACTURER DIRECTLY WITH YOUR MODEL NUMBER.

Have it checked over by a gunsmith to be sure.

Depends on what model you have. Glock's website lists all the technical specifications for its products.

well mine holds 17 but 18 with 1 in the head

DO NOT ATTMEPT THIS!!!! There is a difference of .002 between the diameter of the projectiles.

10-40 per cent.

Ammuntion that is marked 44 Mag. Bullet weights from 180-300 grains are available.

.30 caliber.

It should be marked on the barrel.

Which gun?

In the U.S. there is no limit, at least in any state that I know of (but you should check your local laws). People that shoot competitively and people that load their own ammo sometimes buy 10,000 or more rounds/bullets at a time.

During the Vietnam War, "sixty cans" (M60 machine gun ammunition cans) came 200 rds per can; in two bandoleers, each one hundred round bandoleer was in a OD colored cloth bag which had OD cloth handles. The cloth bags were always discarded (quickly). "Sixty cans" were easily identified, as they were narrow, not wide metal cans, like the .50 caliber ammo cans (called "fifty cans"). Each 5th round was a tracer, same with the fifty ammo. Tracers were painted with orange tips on the bullets (they might have been meant to be red, but they appeared to be orange in color).

Winchester made some that did. Remington also, IIRC.

38 special.

.410 ammo

It is impossible for a bullet to fire straight. In order to hit a target 100 yards away it has to travel a few inches above the target when it is 50 yards away, then at the 1/2 way 50 yard point gravity overcomes the upward trajectory and starts pulling the bullet down. All bullets travel in an arc, the further you are away from the target the larger the arc. Also long distance snipers have to aim the shot a few feet to the right or left of the target to overcome the effect of wind. Also the earths rotation causes the Coriolis Effect which will change the direction of the bullet at long distances.

The bottom line is that no bullet will ever travel in a straight line

It depends on what you are using it for and which one groups best.
