I don't imagine you wear that brass out much.
dunno… some of it is on its 5th or 6th loading, though. I’m waiting on the necks to start splitting.

I am loading 38/200 Mk I and 455 Webley Mk II for my two Webley revolvers.
I load a very hot 38 Short Colt for USPSA competition, but shoot that in a modern 357 Magnum revolver.
I will be loading 30 Remington AR when I run out of factory ammunition since I expect the Vista owned Remington ammunition might not continue to support that cartridge any more.
I really appreciate the offer but I am sitting on a heap of 150gr Core-Lokt and I have dies ready when I run out of that. Thanks!Send me a PM and we may can work out something, I have several boxes of 150 Core Lokt for 30 Rem AR.
Nor do I, but I knew a guy that made loading for the Hornet interesting by casting his own bullets for it and kicking them out at 22 LR velocities. Being the avid handloader I am, if I ever run across an inexpensive 22 Hornet, I think I'll give that a try myself. It would surely be a lot more fun for me than shooting ground squirrels with store-bought 22 LR ammo.I don't consider the Hornet to be obsolete or little used.
Anybody else out there like to piddle around loading and shooting cartridges that are little used and/or actually obsolete?

Where do you get brass and bullets for 8.15x46R? I have a Gewehr 98 from between the wars that my FiL gave me. It took me chamber casting it to figure it out but it is chambered in that cartridge and one of these days I would like to shoot it. Any info would be appreciated.My odd-ball list:
.30 Luger
6.5x57
8.15x46R
8x68S
.40-70 (2.4")
.45-90 (2.4")
.45-100 (2.4")
Modern components are available for all of them, so there's not much difficulty in loading.
I have a 250AI 6mm Remington AI 7x57AI 6BR 30x47 all are fun nice to have something differentAnybody else out there like to piddle around loading and shooting cartridges that are little used and/or actually obsolete? I currently load 32-20, 300 Savage, and 405 Winchester. I maybe could count the 260 Remington in that you don't see it around much and I make brass for it. At least, I am the only one I personally know that loads for one. I like stuff that makes me scramble around a bit looking tools and for ways to procure or fabricate brass.
I recently bid on a Remington model 8 in 30 Remington, but I didn't win. I am currently considering picking up something in 250-3000 (not a 99 though), a 6mm Remington, or a 257 Bob.
I have a 18" carbine barrel for my T/C Contender in the .256 WinMag from E.A.Brown. It is a shame this round was never offered in any rifles other than a Marlin Lever gun Model 63? cause it is a very accurate round and a great mid range varmint gun.Certainly no problem making brass for the 256. I would have one, but finding the guns is tough. And expensive.
I don't consider the Hornet to be obsolete or little used. Ruger still makes rifles chambered for it and I haven't had any trouble getting brass for mine.
I sure haven't seen any 348 in a long time. Where do you find brass for it?
I got bitten by the .32-20 Bug a few years ago (started by my grandfather's old .32-20 4" Army Special).Anybody else out there like to piddle around loading and shooting cartridges that are little used and/or actually obsolete? ...

How about the 6.5, 350, and 8mm Rem Mags?! Some of my favorites to load and shoot!
Not only that, but the chase game to find the rifles and brass is something I actually enjoy!
The most odd is 7.62x38 Nagant. I also load 30-40, 260, and 35 Whelen.Anybody else out there like to piddle around loading and shooting cartridges that are little used and/or actually obsolete?
