But, what is the date of the announcement?
Remington has determined that one specific lot code of the 100 round box of 38 SPECIAL+P 125 GRAIN SEMI-JACKETED HOLLOW POINT (L38S2B) ammunition, may contain 357 Magnum ammunition. This packaging mix is specific to lot number: P24UA18R only.
If just one chamber on one gun allowed a .357 Magnum round to chamber it would be too many. I think Remington is trying to avoid trouble. Also some older .38 Special handguns would chamber .357 rounds.Mike1951 wrote:Just curious. What .38 Special only firearms would successfully chamber .357 cartridges?
IOW, are any .38s bored in such a manner than .357s would insert fully?
