I've heard of people cutting down 357 brass to make 38s. Is this safe to do?. If it is I might try cutting some of mine. It's cold and I'm bored.. merry Christmas everyone..

when my 357 mag cases split they get trimmed down, and have never had ant issues other then sorting brass after a family get to- gather just pay attention . But I keep my loads on the mild side .

Not in need of any now. I have enough for awhile. Just was curious about cutting the 357 cases. Thanks anyway. John

I work my way down cracked 357 magnum brass becomes 38 special then 38 Long Colt then 38 Shot Colt then goes to recycling.

It is entirely safe to do this.

With rifle in hand, I confidently go forth into the darkness.
