In my area .38-55 factory ammo is hard to find and very, very expensive.

What's factory ammo? lol

I believe they used it during WWII when they attacked German manufacturing plants. Didn't think they had .38-55s though. Must have been some cowboys in that war too.

I got me some deer ammo, some moose ammo and some factory ammo.

What length of brass are you using when reloading for the 38-55?
