Pay it Forward in Reloading

[Mark_Mark]

That's actually when I needed a 380 for serious concealment.
My work and locale now doesn't require that level of concealment. So I have gotten rid of my 380.
Someone was trying to be helpful and put all my brass into 81mm mortar cans. The 380 is in it somewhere.

That’s my thought… my LC9 prints like crazy in my pocket. Have to put a cell phone over it, or wallet…. I had a LCP once and I bearly know it was there

He may need to PIF some chicken soup toast
I need to finish sorting my brass and see how much 380 I can send to a new home.

Chicken soup toast. Yummmm!
I’m making seared sea scallops over pasta in Lemon and Calabrian pepper in olive oil sauce. Very simple food tastes good.

I had chicken noodle soup and grilled cheese sandwich for lunch.

my buddy has a restaurant and I get him to save me the raw chicken bones. I fill my pressure cooker with bones to the top, dry onions and let it cook for 4 hours and simmer overnight!!! fine strainer! BEST SOUP ever!!!

What a way to "Pay It Forward" ... chicken soup for the soul of the reloader.

Soup of the day, would like a interesting thread lol. I have one of those spicy noodle cups I like, fire wok I think. I fill it full of water have it more like a soup.

I've used the rcbs swager before and they work great, think I'll be loading a bunch of 5.56 this next year since there's a 600 yards range now.

I have 50pcs of Starline 360 DW brass to give away. It is unfired, unsized and brand new. You claim it, it’s yours.

In betwixt the Mag and the Max, therein lies the 360 DW.

Sound like something I can get into… Why is it discontinued from Starline??? looks FUN

The Black Powder Section is on fire!

Thats not good...

Between that and the chicken soup toasted bread, you've got me rolling pretty good

It's a relic from the days of silhouette shooting with revolvers. I run it in my R92 357. I haven't found replacement brass in 5 years. Even 357 max has been unobtainable for me.

It would be cool to have a lever gun that would run mag. Dw, and max. If 38 is dropped that's fine.

I seen a bag of .357 max, about 300-500 new case at my LGS. 2018, they were asking $0.25 a case, I thought it was too much

I have a H&R single shot 357 Mag that chambers 360 DW with no modifications to the rifle. The H&R and NEF rifles are known for their long chambers, so I took advantage.

It's not discontinued from Starline, just backordered. Order some, they will make it when they get enough orders. That's what I did.

I had my HandiRifle cut for .357Max. I’m pushing 200gr LBT LWFN-GC close to .35Rem velocities. The SB2 action is plenty strong but the ejectors are stupidly overpowered so I recut the slot for extraction only. It makes follow up shots slower but I lose fewer cases.

I had my HandiRifle cut for .357Max.

I considered rechambering also, but when I found the rifle would chamber the DW I just went with that.

I didn't have to modify the rifle, and I can't think of anything I hunt that would be killed by the Max, but not the DW.

Basically I'm just lazy that way...

Edit to add - The only downside is that there is almost no data for the DW. It's a matter of feeling one's way in the dark.
I look at Mag data, and Max data, use some extrapolation and interpolation, and go shoot.

Sometimes that's all we have. I've done it many times.

Starline currently has both 360 DW and 357 Max brass available for backorder. Might take a while to get, but if you need it you need it.

Until yesterday I didn't know how their backorder system worked.

 

[Mark_Mark]

I think .357 max and 360 DW is being replace with commercial available at Walmart 350 Legend

Handloading vs reloading.
