You will also need tweezers to handle the cases.

This is from Ammoseek web site. It isn't showing much, but it does show those four outfits have brass.

I recommend a really good scale.

I don't want to sound like a dick. But why anyone messes with .380 or 25 acp is lost on me.

They are pathetically weak rounds, and most firearms chambered in the rounds are trash.

Haven’t loaded for mine but, I have been thinking about it . Got a nice CZ 45 that I inherited from my Dad. It is double action only and well built. Better than nothing if you……

I know of one guy, many many years ago, killed by a .25ACP. I disagree about the .380. Not my first choice, but I think I can make someone leave me alone if I mag-dump it into their chest or groin. I think if you research you will find the .380 has moved the needle favoring the body count. I personally like other than the two calibers discussed here, but depending on concealment needs, a dependable .380 like the LCPII is not a terrible choice.

YMMV

markm87, I apologize for that remark. It doesn't sound as amusing as it did when I spit it out. I meant nothing hurtful when I said it.

And I somewhat agree with you about those two cartridges being kind of wimpy. I actually worked with a guy whose girlfriend shot him smack in the center of the forehead with a 25, and it bounced off, leaving a horrible divit in his head.

The OP's post only asks about finding dies for that cartridge. I doubt that he's bear hunting with it, and if he's like me, he's just wanting to load for a gun that he's got. I own dies and I reload for every single centerfire weapon I own, and have fun doing it. There are actually some well made little pistols for that round. jd

I have a Walther ppks in my pocket at all times, it sure makes me feel better than all the other pistols in my safe. Even if it is only a 380.

I have a Colt Astra Pocket in .25. Not a hand cannon but I think it’s a neat little pistol that fits in my jacket pocket nicely.

As far as reloading those iddy-biddy cases, I've never done 25's, but I do thousands of 380's, and I guess my smallest is 32 S&W. It's not a problem for me, but I've got very small hands and nimble fingers..

Looks like your pinkey took a hit.
