375 Win. VS 38-55

[Tick]

I have a lot of once fired 38-55 brass and cant find 375 brass.
Can 38-55 brass be used in a 375 Win. chambered rifle?
I will be loading to 38-55 velocities for the 375.
I understand the 38-55 case is longer but can be trimmed.

I believe it will chamber and fire, but is not appropriate for the higher pressure .375 loads. You might try trading or selling your brass on the EE to fund some .375 brass.

You just need to trim those 38/55 cases, good luck with your .375 W., it is a fine caliber and alot of fun to shoot and hunt with, like the older 38/55....Ben

True and you can use the same dies as well.................Harold

Yes, I've used .38/55 cases in a Marlin .375 - no problem.

It's gunshow season, that's where I found a bag of winchester brass for my wife's 375.

I bought .375 Win brass from Wholesale Sports via mail order.

Not many, but I found a dozen and you're welcome to them.
