.38 S&W 200 gr. bulleted loads...

Me too on the fall thing. I've put my Enfield Mk 6 on hold waiting for a while. My home made brass is not working out for some reason. Bullets keep creeping forward making the velocity spread a large amount. I even had a bullet completely pull out of the case. I need to buy a 45 ACP seat die with roll crimp and grind it down so I can roll crimp the 455 cases into the bullet groove or over the ogive. I don't want to bugger up my normal 45 ACP die. I did buy a 455 taper crimp die from T.O.W and when it arrived it was a standard 45 ACP taper crimp die. I might just grind it down.

I like the 38 S&W or 200 for some reason. My first revolver was an Enfield Mk II 38-200 back in the 70s, but alas I read so much of Elmer and Skeeter and being young had to have a magnum LOL. But then again I've always been attracted to the obscure. I am currently messing with the 7.62 Tokarev at the present.
