I'm looking for 1000 nickel RP .357 mag. If anyone has a couple of those 500 case packs they use to sell that you'd like to get rid of, please let me know.

Forum: Swaging
Oh yeah 5.7 cases make great 308 projectiles but I'd guess there'd be an issue on the length vs weight needs for a 32 due to the base of brass turned projectile lengthens the projectile a good bit. ...
