safe territory for an investment. The ammo can be easily made and I can tell you how. I just used .38 Special dies. You can shoot cast .355 bullets just fine. One can make brass from .357 Max. (semi-rimless perfect replicas) or .223 (true rimless but it works) and is easier.
Basically I cut the shoulder off .223 and trimmed to length, expanded and loaded a 9mm cast bullet. I used military 5.56 too but the brass is harder and splits much faster. First firing blows out the sidewalls to correct fit. Second load looks really close to factory .351 SL. It of course has to fit the mag. but I shot .357 pistol bullets resized to .355 and 180/200 gr. too. I do have a .352" Lyman sizer for the 450 machine.
