Rick88 Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 I have some left over 3n38 that I need to use up, I know there are much better options but I want to use this for minor with a 124 bullet. Has anyone tried this? where did you start? Was it as bad as I think it might be as far as recoil even at 130ish... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kneelingatlas Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 Try trading for some Clays, I'd make that trade if I were local. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick88 Posted December 16, 2013 Author Share Posted December 16, 2013 I dont have enough to trade to anyone, I only got about 2 pounds left that I used for open major, I'm switching to autocomp and just wanted to use the 3n38 up to play around with in production.

superdude Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 (edited) Based on 115 grain bullets in a 38 Super the recoil of 3N38 is a little more than Power Pistol but less than AA#7. See figure 4 (upper panel) at the link below. http://38super.net/Pages/Gunpowder%20and%20Recoil.html Edited December 16, 2013 by superdude Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
