Poorly Made Dies cause 98% of all Chambering problems that I see in my shop on Arms chambered in .38 WCF ( .38-40 ) this holds true in all action types ,,, Slides , levers and single shots of all types .... And Revolvers .... Every single one has chambered and 98% functioned great with My Personal loads in new Star-Line Brass... A couple of guns had too tight Chamber necks to use Star-line brass in ,,, but loading Winchester Brass with my dies and bullets solved the problem ... Jabez Cowboy

What is We doing on Page 3 ??? Are we Slipping ??? Or just needing something to recharge the Grump Battries ..... Where is all da Redheads ??? Plenty of Coffee ,,, but the Shortbread Cookies is Bout gone ... Who's coming West to Shoot this Year??? Jabez Cowboy

When I turned 60 some time ago,,,, My Wife invited my friends to my Funeral , she made up bulletins/Order of service ,,, Did up a right proper Job ... Told some things about me that many of my recent ( last 20 Years ) friends didn't Know ,,, There were some really nice things said some that were even True ... We had a great time , Great Food good friends and A loving Family .... John a longtime friend, he was 76 at the time got to go to my Funeral and a few years latter I attended His ... My wife said that she was happy I didn't Die before my Planned Death ,,,,"As it might Look Bad".... While John and some other Good Pards have now gone Over ,,,, They can say they were at my Funeral too ... Good Friends may die ,,,,, but they are never really Gone .... Jabez Cowboy

Trail Boss: 5 grains under a 240 gr. bullet ... Or a full case load of Goex .... Lightly Commpressed... Jabez Cowboy

Welcome to you and Your's.... Get out and meet Folks ,,,, Some bite ,,, but most don't If you buy .38 spl. caliber Guns do it because you want to ,,,, Not because it's "What Everyone Shoots "and it's cheaper.... But if you see your self shooting BIG Bore guns ,,,, that's what to buy .... Buying .38s because it's the thing to do, when you are wanting to be the leader of your own Pack and not a follower in the main pack is expensive .... Jabez Cowboy

Imis; I noticed you are into Model Railroading ,,, My Brother-in-Law is really into that as well .... Me I just drove them on down da Rail for CPR for 8 years .... Anyho that was a spell ago 1980- 1988.... Coffee fer da Grumps an Shortbread Cookies ... Jabez Cowboy

Sorry Pard , but SAMMI has had Specs. for this cartridge ( .38 WCF ) since 1980 with the latest revision in 2005.... And the .40-65 is under Review at this time ... Lyman has very good drawings of the Specs. for .40-65 in their Handbook , these match very closely the specs. in the old "Ideal" manual... And Hornady (.40-65 ) New Diamention Dies, size cases to these specs... Jabez Cowboy
