Is this crazy with +p?
I imagine that this is a stupid question:
Is +p brass any different than regular brass? I want to load just a few test rounds, and I don't want to buy a new bag of brass or a box of +p rounds to shoot off, then reload. The obvious problem is someone picking them up without a +p on them and putting them through a 38 spl that's not rated for it. Aside from that, I don't see any problem. Am I about to do something stupid? |

Regular brass will work fine for +P loads. Some +P brass will not accept flush seated wadcutters, but that's another story.
Handloaders were loading .38 special cases to full .357 pressures (double +P) long before +P was made. Weak point is in the pistols, not the cases. |

Thanks

You seem to be jumping all over every one of my stupid questions. You have no idea how much I appreciate the help! Thanks, Stump |

Just for future reference, +p 9mm brass is the same as "standard" 9mm brass.
