Looking for loading data, projectiles and any info on loading for the 37mm/40mm shells.


Thanks,

    Where are you? Your profile doesn't indicate.

    Shells of that size are restricted in the US.

    As a general proposition, live rounds of this size are tightly regulated items under GCA68 and the implementing regulations which grandfathered them into the NFA as "destructive devices." Only harmless projos are acceptable (e.g., originally inert or de-milled). Where the live rounds are subject to NFA controls, I'm not sure if one can even make one live since the BS legal changes of 1986 (?) . . . but if you can, do you really want to pay $200 for each specimen to do it legally?

    I should have been more specific on the type of shells I am looking for loading data for ie; flare rounds, parachute etc. My understanding is the HE rounds are the only ones regulated by the NFA.

    Here is a link to a site that covers almost any 37/40mm questions that you could have. I covers legal questions as well as loadings. They have some great pics.
