My son just gave me a pair of handguns both ruger blackhawks. One is chambered in 30-357 mag the other is 32-357 mag. Does anyone have any data on either one. I have been able to find loading dies and forming dies for the 30-357. nothing more than that. NEED HELP.
Thank you

My questions are these...
1.) Is it worth it to reload 7.62x39 rounds? What about 40 S&W?
2.) What do I need to start, best value reloader, etc???
3.) What literature do you recommend???
4.) open to comments.......
Better to carry a pistol and not need it than need a pistol and not have it.
14479963. Is this a good purchase or are there better deals with dies out there. I dont know a damn thing about it so give me everything you've got.
Thanks

I would not do that at all, way to risky.
There are a couple problems: 1, 357 brass is designed for higher pressures than the 38 so it is possible that the 38 brass would fail if loaded to 357 pressures. 2, the bullet could be seated in the 38 so as to leave the same internal space as the 357 but the bullet would not line up for the crimp, which will change the results. If you look up 38 Spl +P+ loads, which is what several LE agencies used in their 357s, those loads will really be max; and it would be safer for you on a continuing basis to load to +P specs. +P loads will have affects similar to 357, particularly from shorter barrels.
Huntington's in California is showing Remington brand .357 Magnum in stock. I suggest calling them for availability.
