.38 s&w

So my uncle has asked me to look into what reloading the .38 smith would be. Found everything I need except bullets. Effective diameter is .361. Any leads as to where I can find some?

Penn Bullets
is another option. They'll size the bullet to whatever you ask for just the same as MO Bullet Co. Its a smaller operation. If you call them, you'll get "the" boss.

Their prices are about the same for either.

I've used the Penn bullet 140 gr RNFP unsized and lubed with Liquid Alox.
If they will size them for you it would be less mess and time (depending on the cost of that service).
These projectiles gave me accuracy on a par with the CBC ammo available (out of a DAO Enfield Mark II).
