The title says it all, if anyone has some they'd be willing to part with I'd appreciate it.

I have only some specimen rounds of .351, but it can be fairly easily made from .357 Max cases by reducing the rim diameter, cutting a new extraction groove, and shortening the case. It helps if you have access to a small lathe. Surprisingly, I've seen a lot of new .357 Max brass. It is still used in T/C Contenders. There may be other sources for .351 cases, as lots of people are making up cases in obsolete calibers these days. I imagine the .351 could be loaded OK using .38/.357 dies, as the case length of the .351 is only a few hundredths of an inch longer than a .357 Mag case.
