    Yup, 200 Gr was the factory load. I use a .38/200 bullet mold and make my own. Nice cheap round to reload. Order it when you can.

    Guys, reminder: this is an AmmoSupply.ca forum area. Please do not post details of other retailers or your own items to sell. Go and do that in a different thread, in the appropriate area please!

    Cool. Cool. I have lots of .38 S&W that I am sitting on and new stuff would just make it that much easier to shoot the old stuff and stockpile the new. Sweeeet.

    No. That cartridge is too narrow. Don't quote me, but I think the proper .38/200 molds are special order only. I think Lee's .38 S&W mold doesn't even drop the appropriate .38/200 bullet - or so I've been told. That's why I went in on a group mold buy with a bunch of yanks 4-5 years ago and snagged a .38/200 mold.

    Maybe the dealer may consider bringing in .38/200 molds too?

    ^ i managed to find a couple boxes at a gunshow at a ridiculous price, however i would love to pick up large amount, i shot my enfield the first time last weekend and had a blast, light recoil and was very accurate!

    Firing 9mm Para in a .38 S&W is an extremely bad idea.
