Bob,
As much as I would love to see it, I don't think there are enough of us out there for them to justify it. Of course, if they would just make the bullets, we could load our own :rolleyes: .
Sorry to sound like a sceptic, but it's hard enough to find factory ammo for the 375W as it is.

I wish SOMEBODY--ANYBODY would make some realistically priced factory ammo for the 375. Not enough of us out here taht shoot this caliber anymore, Shame too. Till then I cast my own and load my own. Wish I could find a deal on 500 once fired cases though. Steve
Has anyone tried to form thier brass from a 30/30 case with any luck. don't mean to but in, I registured a few mounths ago and this the first time the site let me post anything.

e. auther brown sells 375 winch cases made fromm30-30
I've made a ton of 375 cases from 30-30 brass. Nothing to it. Prime a 30-30 case, add a few grains of fast burning pistol powder, fill the rest of the case with cornmeal or cream of wheat and top off with a wax plug to keep the goodies in. Then just shoot them. I used some once fired brass, some old stuff too. Had very few cases split or end up unusable. Will need to make sure your sizer die gets them down to a size that will give good neck tension though. The necks will be a bit thinner than 375 brass. This is not a concern for me because I shoot .379" cast bullets in these cases anyway. .375" jacketed bullets do not have adequate neck tension, but might do ok with a firm crimp from a LEE FCD.
