Does anyone know where to source .351 WSL ammo for the model 1907? its impossible to find. I know that in the states you can get some but up in Canada, no luck.
 
Not the easiest solution but if you can find .357 Maximum cases it will work. Quite easy if you have a small lathe but could also be done using a mounted drill.

From "The Handloader's Manual of Cartridge Conversions"

- make from .357 Maximum brass
- turn rim to .407 diameter. If necessary thin rim from the front.
- cut new extractor groove
- trim to 1.38"
- full length size
- chamfer
 
I couldn't imagine trying to feed something like a 1907 with factory ammo in this day and age.

Start reloading or send it along to a new owner would be my suggestion.
 
Old pic... not for sale.

Been searching shows for a while, not much out there. And the few boxes that I did find where WAY out of my price range.
Good luck.
Like others have said get into reloading.

Even finding 32-20 is becoming more difficult.

Ive managed to buy a box or two of old stuff on auction ($$$$) but recently managed to buy some Bertram brass for the .351 Wsl and some bullets and have loaded up my first batch. (Brass is not cheap either) managed to get brass from "Beaks & Brass" and I see he sells cast bullets for the .351 as well.

Ive also loaded up a few test rounds using 300 b/o brass, after reading about some people using 223 brass. (yes its undersize, but apparently fire forms and ejects...so will give it a try)

357 mag brass works too and is a little more common. Case is a hair shorter but it cycles just fine in my rifle.

Hey, I just came across a box of this recently, factory Dominion, if that’s what you happen to be after, I realize this thread is a little outdated, but thought I’d check.
