357-38? What and how to do?

[vince]

Can I reload 38 and 357 in the same dies by just backing the dies out?

Thanks in advance!!!!!!!!!

Yes. Sizing is the same and neck expansion/seating/crimping need to be adjusted.

My RCBS carbide set came with a spacer that sits between the die nut and the press.

I'm sure it's available separately and saves adjusting your die every the time you want to change from special to magnum.

Hey Vince, I have a set of like new 38/357 dies ( Hornady) with 2 bullet seater for rd nose and Wadcutters. As I live on the other side of town it is pretty easy pick up.
