Hi, quick question for any experts out there. Do any or all of the dies between these two calibers interchange? I just got a canadian military marked s&w m&p.
I have a set of dies for .38 special, and I have lots of .38 s&w live rounds I want to reload them after I shoot them off. It is no big deal if I have to buy new dies, but half the time I buy new lee dies they are marked as if they are used for two or more calibers. For example I got a set for .455 webley and some of the dies say .455/.45 colt/.45 schofield or some such. I already had a set of dies for .45 colt, that are just marked .45 colt, but they seem to be the same.
O.K. next question, any idea where to get 200 grain jacketed lrn bullets for .38 s&w. I got a small wooden case of 1944 marked canadian military ammo for my revolver that is marked .380 IIz. They seem to be 200 grain lead round noses that are nickel washed or something like that (they are silver instead of copper coloured)
Anyway thanks for your patience if you read all this.
