After seeing the long or nonexistent rate of response at some of the message boards that focus on old guns I was hoping some of the gun enthusiasts here at the Dope could help me with a problem. Do any of you know of a ammunition maker that makes .351 cal. that is usable in a Winchester Model 1907 ? I’ve asked at a couple of local gun shops and they can’t find a listing for .351 in either Winchester or Remington’s catalogs. Is there a ammo maker that supplies it regularly or will it have to be specially made ? I suppose I could wade through the aisles of gunshows looking for the old stuff, but I would rather have something a little less expensive and more reliable.

Obsolete and Unusual Rifle Calibers:
351 Win (20) .351 formed brass $30.00 plus shipping
Obsolete ammo for sale. Tired of being told no? At last you can buy custom loaded obsolete ammo for your out-of-production guns. Our commercial ammo manufacturer can make up most loads from the past, using new, fired, or formed brass. All ammo is loaded with the best components available and carefully inspected. Dillon equipment is used on production ammo. Reasonable care is used in the manufacture of all ammo, but manufacturer or seller assumes no further liability. Ammo should be used in guns in good condition, properly chambered for ammo used.
Thanks astro.
I must be slipping on my search techniques.
