You can get the die from CH4D, and I found various sources claiming to use 348 WCF or 24 gauge brass. Personally I wonder how close the dimensions are to a 11 mm Mauser, and if you can fire form the Murata from the Mauser (for which you can get new brass and the list of reform cartridges is the same).

As I get older I find hitting a mini ram at 200 yards with the 22 oddly more satisfying.
