Is there any established small 30 cal rounds like a 38 special necked down? For low velocity cheap plinking with cast bullets?

Not aware of an established one, but still looking. Did grab a 38 Spcl shell and ran it into my 7.62x25 FL sizer I had sitting ready from loading those and it makes for a long neck, rimmed version.... You could trim the neck I guess.

Checked on CH Tool and Die website:
30-357 Magnum 23o
30-357 Magnum 30o
30-357 Magnum 40o
30-357 Paxton

My first wildcat was a 32/38spl.with a 30 degree shoulder.It was a rechambered 32 rimfire,no.4 Remington Rolling Block with the firing pin set to centerfire.This was in 1972.

This was an original wildcat of my design.

It was a blast!

There is a 30/357 Paxton.

I have seen the 30x357 Max, aka rimmed whisper. If you have a 357 max, ron it up into a 30x221 die, pretty much the same effect.
