Ok,
My shooting buddy Ed insist that I need to Buy a set of Redding Taper Crimp and Profile dies for Shooting 38 Spec and 357 mag....
So I buy them ( not cheap) But to use them you really have to be sizing your bass undersize ( or should I say factory size...like for jacketed bullets)
I do not size my brass that small! I actually use a 38 Super die to size my 38 Spec & 357 mag cases because the cases come out closer to SAMI specs! ( I size my wife's 38 S&W brass in a 9mm Makarove to get it closer to spec)
I shoot .359" cast bullets in my 38 Spec and 357 mags!...These darn Magic Redding dies "resize" the cast bullets in the case when I use them!
Now Ed has been using these and shooting cast bullets since 1969 and swears by them and granted he shoot nice groups...but for me I think they are a big mistake!
Probably will be unloading these on e-Bay
