What bullet are you going with? I know, wrong forum but inquiring minds want to know!

Thanks for the heads up. Coastalfirearms.com in Florida looks like an elaborate scam web site.
Interesting sidebar. "Coastalfirearms.net" is the website for an actual brick and motor gunshop in Charleston SC. It is the place where, in November, 2021, the dumgfuqk gunshop owner shot and killed his friend with a Glock 17, because "he thought it was a BB gun."

Rule number 1. If they will not accept credit cards stay away.

Don't even go to that site. I searched for "38-55 brass" and my Webroot security software flags it with a big warning: "Caution. This website may contain content that could affect your online security."
Y'all might want to delete those links just to save others any headaches from innocently clicking on them.

Back to the thread subject, I have some used brass and sent you a PM on that.

New brass or used? I have a lot that has been fired once or more. I'll dig it out and take a look if you're interested in used brass.

If you reload 38-55you can make very serviceable brass from 30-30 brass. It’s a little short but works ok in my old Winchester

This will be my first 38-55, so I'd prefer new or once fired brass, preferably from the same lot.

Starline brass for the 38-55 is intermittently available through their website. You might check their site every now and then or put in a request for a backorder or notification when they run the next batch. The last time I ordered they also had it in two lengths.
