Before shooting, have your gun checked by a gunsmith. Use BLACK POWDER ONLY
Reloading Kit for .38 short Colt , .38 long Colt / 380 short & long Revolver 1) PRIMING: Place the primer on a
flat, hard surface. Position the base of the empty cartridge case over
the primer, and the kit’s extractor rod into the bottom of the case:
strike the rod with a mallet. 2) Charge the case with a measure of black powder.
Be careful : The measure is first ad foremost a tool to handle the
powder : it may be too great for short cases ( No more place to put
the base of the bullet without compressing the powder) or too small for
long cases. NEVER COMPRESS THE POWDER WHEN FORCING THE BULLET INTO THE CASE / DO NOT USE THE MEASURE WHEN USING SMOKELESS POWDERS 3) Place the case on the tool base and then put a
bullet head on the top of the case. Cover with the main tool,
groove-marked end downward.
(The tool base is machined on both sides: Short case ; use small perforation side of the tool base.
Long case ; use deep perforation side of the tool base).
 4)Adjustment of the seating tool :
A) -Antic type 9.50mm bullet: With a mallet, force the bullet head progressively into
the case until it is shoulder deep.
-9.10mm C.I.P type bullet: force the bullet head into the case about 5mm and,
at the most,
as far as the middleof the crimping groove. B) Screw the bushing down against the main tool and fix it in place with the nut.  5)OPTIONAL
Crimping:
Put the support washers into the tool base. Put the cartridge above the
supports. Cover the whole with the main tool, groove-marked end
downward. Strike with a mallet until the main tool comes into contact
with the tool base.
NB: For crimping, instead of a mallet, a vice can be used.  AFTER SHOOTING:
1) Deprime the case with the deprimer. Clean the case with a solution of water and detergent. 2) Lubricate the case and re-size it. 3) Push the case out of the re-sizing die using the extractor rod and the mallet. The case is now ready for reloading. The use of other propellants is done entirely at the user’s own risk.
If you intend using other propellants, consult a good reloading manual first
