    Default name that round

    I am cleaning out a bunch of stuff that has accumulated its way into my collection over the years and have a couple of questions.

    Can I blow out my 38 long colt ammo through a 357 revolver? Can't see why but thought maybe someone might know why I shouldn't

    I have run across some rounds that I can't find a marking on. They are the same diameter as 32 auto rounds but the brass is about 1.75 times as long.
    Any clue what it is? I was hoping to save myself the headache of searching for it.

    I'm still trying to figure out how I ended up with over 1500 rds of the 38-40. I really don't remember having anything in that caliber. Not to mention that I found 700 rds of 45-70 I didn't know I had.

    Plus I found a couple of rounds marked 357 SLR. These are about 1/8 of an inch longer than a 357 round. Not sure about those. Guess I need to break out the reloading manuals.

    Found a few hundred 12ga paper hulls. Probably throw those up on the cowboy shooter forum.

    Found the treasure chest finally. 4 20mm cans of 50bmg ammo as well as two footlockers of reloading supplies and my 50bmg press. For some reason I thought I had traded that stuff away a few years back.
