Has anyone reloaded for a Winchester 351 Self Loader and can share the up's and down's they experienced or, any unseen challenges. Indeed, a gun that's called a self loader does require ammo.
I could use more empty brass. I have boxes of new factory but it's a painful thought to use them for general shooting days.
I had heard there are some little quarks about reloading this cartridge. I have loaded thousands upon thousands of M1 Carbine rounds. So??? Anyone have a 351SL that they load for?
(OPINION: I still feel the origional M1Carbine's should have been issued [made in] the 351 cartridge and not the 30cal Carbine cartridge).
Well fellas .....there's my first post and, with an opinion?
Side-Bar: I heard that the French bought 351's in WWI and rear seat gunners used them in aircraft to aircraft shooting. Any history buff heard of this?
PS) The gent who posted split necks in a 223 and does not want to anneal his brass has only one other option.....rechamber to: 223AI.
