I'm here to tell you that crossing that line is sometimes an invisible mark in one's life. In my last hour on the last nite of full time duty in CA, I probably had my closest call, and will only say that the fact that he finally did drop the knife after his second and final warning, which, if memory...

I shoot .45s. My wife and son (@ 9yo) both started with .38s. The son now shoots .45s also. But, with 185 grain boolits @ ~800fps. I shoot BP either with the .45s or my .36 Navies.

I didn't read thru all the replies, so forgive mr if I repeat someone else's response. IF you select a bullet designed for those velocities, there's no reason for it not to work. Far worse tho' to use a 1000fps designed bullet and expect it hold up @ 1700fps or so that a full-house .44Mag can attain...

Put some Kroil penatrating oil on it and use a soldering iron as a heat source. Should come right out. :wink: Don't use a flame as a heat source as you'll discolor the bluing. Hold the soldering iron on the cylinder near the nipple. The biggest problem will be even heat around the nipple to expand ...

Minimally, I'd start off with some .382s. It may require getting your own mold made and a new hobby in casting. You might also check out some of the subject matter over on Cast Boolits.com . Closest I could find in a short search was this swaged bullet from Montana Precision @ .381 265 Grain Lead Fl...

Sounds like a wonderful time. People in the Lowcountry are mighty friendly. Unfortunately the Palmetto gun club is way out price range of most of the population. There are only a couple of public ranges and they are only a 100yrds. I was glad to leave Ca but they did have some good places to shoot....

I wouldn't. 1st Gen guns were chambered for rounds that were all around 12-13K PSI, the .38+P generates upwards of 19K PSI. A steady diet of that might cause some excessive frame stretch in the softer irons of the era. While the .38Spl standard loadings generate in the 15-16K PSI, it is a less signi...
