homemade .38/.357 bullets

in my never ending quest for market independence I've posted a video on making these at home using dies/mould most handloaders already have.

We continue our quest to ensure everyone who shoots can do so regardless of market fluctuations and cycles due to the political climate, or lack thereof...

Plus, its really cool to blow stuff up with your own bullets!

I've seen a similar video for making a .45 acp bullet using .40 s&w brass. Thanks for posting for a .38/.357 bullet.

I think this is interesting for sure and cool and all that. But what is the end purpose? I mean, that's a lot of effort for a single bullet, especially as you've cast a lead bullet already. Why not just cast up a bunch of bullets and shoot lead?

Why would someone want to take a rare brass and use it insead of a 9mm brass that is too common and everywhere?

Makes no sense man... And yes, .380 and 10mm brass as well as .357 brass are NOT very common, at least in comparison to 9mm brass... WHICH really should be used and should work if you trim off a little more.

Some may say I'm at the range too much, and have too much brass on my hands.

besides, if you don't have any of the aforementioned calibers is it really a sin to transform it into something you CAN use? Sort of a philosophical question if you ask me...

Whether it's too time consuming or a sin to do, at least Manny has the ability to feed his baby if another ammo hardship comes along. I look at it as another option to manufacture.

Cast and shoot lead. Sell the unwanted brass to someone who will reload it.. Use the money to buy more lead. Circle of life.
