Now they say re- place B/O, still with no delivery est. Bull!! Al The last 2 times I had brass on back order, they contacted me to confirm my back order & payment details, prior to shipping. The time before that when I back ordered 2K pieces of C45S, it arrived 4 days later. It can take them months to accumulate enough back order quantity to warrant putting a relative slow mover into their production schedule.
Roland Thunder Posted March 20 Posted March 20 What's the difference between regular 38-55 and 38-55 long?
Rip Snorter Posted March 20 Posted March 20 I believe the Long is for single shot rifles. Haven't had a 38-55 for near 20 years, so may be wrong.
Frontier Lone Rider Posted March 20 Posted March 20 Yes, the longer brass is for single shot rifles. Some believe that the longer brass is closer to the riflings and will give you better accuracy. I use the shorter brass just to keep everything simple. It will fire in my single shot rifles and my lever action rifles.

If you have an older 1894 Winchester, you may want to do a chamber cast to verify chamber length. I don't believe the shorter 38-55 brass was available before the 375 Winchester was developed in the late 1970s.
