Define old?

I don't have any webley's, I'm only running S&W M10 victory's.

They are designed for the .38/200 round as well. I run a pre-victory. Basically a whopping 200gr bullet in the .38s&w chambering. I have some boxes of unopened ww2 wartime ammo, some wartime blanks too.
 
If ammo accessibility is an issue, maybe dealers can bring in cast projectiles and guys can load their own?

Lots of the current remington seems to use .357 diameter. They just keep it on the simple side and use existing projectiles.

Yeah, too narrow. You can substitute a lot of things with other things, but if you want it done right, it has to be exact. I have noticed accuracy issues with lighter, more narrow projectiles in the victory and ore victory models.
 
I have an American victory in .38 s&w and its a beautiful handgun, that is an absolute pleasure to shoot! But I have shot .358/.357 Lead through it, not having any .361 dia lead on hand at present time. I can say really for any accuracy you need to run .362 or even .363 lead through it and it is night and day. Normally wiould never run undersized lead obviously, but when you don't have any moulds or cast bullets avail at time..... Well you load as is.
Back to O.P. Topic . I have some but I'm always looking to new supply that can be competitive, wether loaded or components ?

I believe jet hunter here on cgn makes the right projectiles and I think even in 200gr.
 
I decided to give this thread a bump and ask what is usually the timeline on bringing this ammo in? I went to a couple local gun stores in hope of finding any 38 s&w and they kept trying to give me 38 Special or 40 S&W........
 
No worries people, we are ordering this ammo, but unfortunately in this market things are incredibly slow and nobody wants to give ETAs. Good things come to those who wait!!
