Webley or Enfield .38 revolvers coming soon.

The .38-200 seems to be largely obsolete and specialized. Even to reload properly takes a special diameter bullet and original cases, both are hard to find at the moment. Remington was making factory ammo, but may have been .357 diameter bullets. Had a nos webley but sold it for other toys. Never did shoot it! It was a very nice old revolver though. I'm dying for a .22 one.

Bull####

.38/200. IS the same as 38S&W and still manufactured by Win. The .38-200 is a 38 case loaded with a 200 grain bullet for the British war effort, latter switched to 147grain.

Stuff is still available , just cost you an arm and a leg.
 
OMG,..LOL, I remember buying these for $35.00 bucks in 1978. Most inaccurate gun I've ever shot. You would have better luck throwing it at the target. Now having said all that, I would pay $75 bucks for old time sake. LOL
 
Purchaed two 50 round boxes of Fiocchi ($34 a box) a few years ago. Found a set of Lee 38S&W dies and have re-loaded using 174g bullets and bullseye power. Its worked out in-expensive and fun to shoot...

I thought you shot one of my ugly ducklings in 38 S&W, or was it the double action Smith wesson? In any event, the doa version have about a 18 lb trigger pull IIRC. Lift a case of beer with one finger....about like that.

Your right, Yours was exeptional. Nice shooter, pus I liked your reloads, alot hotter than the junk ammo I used.
 
The $300 price tag is out to lunch. You can buy one in my area just about anytime for $150 to $200 and an influx of revolvers should lower the price not raise it.
