Wyatt Earp SASS#1628L Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 I picked up a 66 carbine today in 38-40. In need of some brass, would like to obtain about 250 pieces.Wyatt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Bullweed Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Starline +1 I have reloaded this brand many times over. Winchester and Remington are brands that I get about 6 loads through before the shoulder ripples and then splits or the mouth splits. Georgia Arms sells loaded cartridges with Starline brass. This is a more expensive route to get started but it is another source of Starline brass if they are out of stock. Make sure that you use bullets with a crimp groove for smokeless loads. Many bullet makers sell .401 bullets without crimps that are intended for .40 S&W or 10mm Auto. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cusz M. Dutch SASS Life 55326 Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Also can use 44/40 brass. 38/40 at one time was a little short. I would just run them through size dies and load. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
