Just wondering where to get some 37mm ammo from? What is a good price for them? I might get into loading my own but want to start off with pre-loaded stuff. Can you re-load the factory loaded stuff or do you have to buy the load your own cases?? Thanks |

www.firequest.com sells smoke and flares. I don't know if their stuff is any good, though. I make my own smoke. I got the cases from Brassman and the smoke is just those 5 minute smoke bombs you buy at fireworks shops. I don't know if you can reload the stuff firequest sells. I also buy the 26.5mm (?) stuff they sell at gunshows. Paraflares and smoke. Be advised, the paraflares don't always light and don't always go straight up, either. Sometimes they start in the direction you point them, and then get a mind of their own. The big cases in the picture are my loads. They're too long to load into the tube without removing the barrel stop.

Don't count on it unless Shots has re-appeared in the last few months. All of those links are out of date. I ordered some smoke and flares from atlas ammo one time a long time ago. Store bought ammo is just way to high for me so I roll my own The store bought flares and smoke gerally come in those little yellow or orange plastic casings and yes they can be reloaded many times. They are ok for smoke and flares if you load them right but once you see the difference in them and a 4" aluminum casing, you will not believe it. The aluminum casings can build up so much more pressure that you can throw smoke half way across the countryside. |
