Let's see if I make any next year. I know I'll miss the first one for sure.

Hoping to make a few, without China's gift. It's a good thing.

You do know that you also need cases, powder and primers too.

I switched to a shorter gun so the bullets don't stick in the barrel if I leave out the powder.

IF you would need 38Spcl cases, let me know. I have 2x 50 cal ammo cans full of NEW Starline brass cases. Plus lots of clean twice-fired.

I will bring a variety of brass to steel shoots for sale to reduce my inventory, as I size-down my reloading activities.

My daughter and I use lots of 38's in our GP100's, and save 357's for heavy loadings of 140 or 180 grain XTP's.

Thanks, but I'm loading even my wimpy loads in .357 cases these days, just because I hate cleaning the chambers.

and here I thought it was because you impaled your hand on the ejection rod a couple years ago at a steel shoot when you switched to .357s for the Man v Man after shooting .38s all day.

Yeah... that too. :) It's the same issue really, that was just a particularly dramatic demonstration of it.

Totally. It just hurts too much to do it every time.
