38 spl cut down to 38 s&w ?

[woodchopper]

Factory .38 S&W is available from some retailers...but expect to pay $35+/box.

thats how I get my brass

"...shouldn't use 38/357 dies to reload 38 S&W..." That'll make the cases too small. They'll get work hardened faster.

Thanks for that I didn't know you needed different dies for 38 S&W.

Ya learn something new everyday!

Try mysticplayer for starline brass as they also make 38 s&w.

I load 2.0 gr of W231 behind a 160 gr LSWC for my Enfield pistol. Works like a charm. No idea of the FPS, but on longer shots you could probably time it with a sundial .
