.38-55 question
« on: February 22, 2008, 04:40:24 PM »
thinking about getting a .38-55 and I only see .375" gaschecks and .375  LEE lube and size kit, not .378"
DO they fit without turning the bases down, or do most people not bother to gascheck these heavier slugs
Thanks

Standard Hornady .375" checks fit my 250RCBS bullet bases just fine, and a .378" sizer crimped them on well.
