7.62x38R. RELOADING???

[Claven2]

i use the starline Nagant brass for my reloading needs. Converting .32020 works, but why bother when real brass is easily had? Starline doesn;t ship to Canada, but you can buy it on e-bay, Gunbroker, etc. from dealers who DO ship to Canada.

Lee makes dies for this caliber, as do CH4D. Neither maker has it on their website if I recall, so call and ask for it special as they are limited production dies.

I use 110gr cast bullets intended for the M1 carbine - works fine. The brass does deform a bit and the cartridges look a little weird, but they work fine. Annealing will prolong brass life.
