I have number 7
It’s a shame these didn’t have the correct, round, trigger guard. Mine does now……

It happens! I have oodles of stuff that I posted years ago and nobody bought it.

I would love to buy this if you still have it!

Too much "politician" in that reply (or there is no longer anyone there capable of problem solving.........).

I'm still getting over my balls being swaged and tumbling in flight!

Bob I assume you are using the hollow base or heeled bullets in a .401(+ or-) bore, correct?

I have used both in a number of antique arms and I am, for the most part, done with hollow based...

By the way, my APOLOGIES to the OP for the unintentional hijack of his thread.........

Here is a 38 Special case "necked up" to accept the .386 bullet. These look funny after you shoot them but hold up well and in such a low pressure situation they seem to last a long time,...

Thanks for posting the link!

My thought exactly but I can't get replies to any of my inquiries here.
