Nickel plated brass...

Where do you get it new? I can find it by scads once fired.... I want my 38 special cases nickel so sorting from the 357 is easier....
Obviously I want all the same manufacturer and head stamp....
Any ideas?

pull down menu on finish
Starline doesn't show on the website, but midway still shows in stock.

Thank you!
I swear I looked there and all the other normal places.... missed it obviously.... 1000 pieces in the pipeline.
(It's for my 1866 that I put in the back of the safe twice because I couldn't get it to shoot... finally figured it out and it's the best shooting PC gun I have next to my 1866 in 22mag....)

Emmett, I don't know why but my marlin shoots better with .38s than .357s too. Even when I load the cases to capacity. Completely counter to what should happen.

This is a 1866 chambered in 38 special.... We have a Rossi and a Henry in 357 and they shoot the same load. Now there will be this Uberti in 38 added to the mix and I want to keep sorting to a minimum.... I have a hard enough time keeping 380 out of my 9mm brass...

Emmett you've got the usual conundrum. Too many similar guns to load for too few options for keeping the various loads separate.
I feel your pain.
