What is different between 38super dies and 38/357 dies? I thought it was ok to load for38super as long as a crimp die was used withreg 38/357 set up. Thanks in advance...

    1) .38/.357 case diameter=.379",.38 Super=.384".2) .38/.357 bullet diameter=.357",.38 super=.355".3) You definitely DO NOT want to use a .38/.357 crimp-this is a revolver-type roll crimp.The .38 Super is a semi-auto cartridge and must use a taper crimp.
