I have an old 1903 Colt Hammer Pocket pistol (Not the 1903 hammerless, this is larger). Of course it's chambered in .38 ACP , which is an obsolete case. I see that Buffalo is loading for the 1903 but they are using Starline 38 Super brass.
I absolutely hate the idea of loading in mis-stamped cases, it seems to me to be a recipe for confusion.
Of course it's no biggy if I shoot .38 ACP loads in my .38 Super but how will I know they are .38 ACP when I go to shoot the 120 year old 1903?
This is probably not a problem most of you deal with. I thought about buying Starline brass and stamping an "X" over the "Super" of "38 Super", it would take time to do that to 500 rounds. I know there is a see through dye of some kind they put on the noses of tracer ammo but that might be confusing too.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
