If anyone knows for certain where some could be had please let me know. Looking for 38, 44, or 45. I found two places that have TONS and only take Zelle or Bitcoin. I found one place that stated they had some and I placed my order with my Amex. I got an e-mail a couple minutes later saying they were back ordered. Or if someone could post the link about other homemade ideas, Thank you.

Check with Natchez Shooters Supply. They had some 38/357 two weeks ago.

Anybody selling something & only taking Zelle or bitcoin as payment sounds a LOT like a scammer.

Trapr and Andrew, thank you. Each solution requires more equipment or searching. I'd like to have 45's, so a 35 Rem die is needed. Fresh out of those. The 45 components are unavailable. I'll get there.

squaw: THE SHOT SHELLS ARE READILY AVAILABLE, WHY THE DESIRE TO RELOAD EMPTY CAPSULES?

I'll get there. Any similar size die will work, the 35 rem is just what I had and used. 40sw,10mm, 30-30, 41mag, you’re just trying to swage the front of the case down enough to get the brass into the throats. Trapr

In my experience, 45 Colt shotshells formed by trimming 460 S&W, and necking it down with 44 Magnum MASSIVELY OUTPERFORM the factory CCI shot shells that appear to use the blue Speer shot cup. At least when it comes to blasting paper at about 7 yards.
I know it’s extra work to do this case forming. But as a consolation, I think you’ll get better results. The formed shells generally hold more shot.

Thank you sir. I just need to get some 460 brass now.
It's on the way. I'll put up pics when it happens.
