    G23 conversion to 357sig

    Anyone here converted their g23 gen 3 to 357 sig? Looking for someone to point me in the right direction.
    Would Lee dies work to neck down the 40 brass?

      Yes, you can use LEE dies to neck down 40S&W brass.

      Most people will tell you that 357 SIG brass is longer, which it is, and that necking down 40S&W brass won't work, but I have successfully done it. If you want to make self-defense loads, I suggest you use real 357 SIG brass.

      Use lots of lube when sizing down 40S&W brass.
