Mr_Flintstone,

Lee makes a .38 Short and Long Carbide die set. You can buy this and load .38 SC, LC, .38 Spl. and .357 Magnum by adjusting appropriately. They will not load .38 S&W, .38 ACP and Super. or .380 ACP.

There is virtually never any reason to trim any revolver cartridge case, Never! Save your self some grief and forget this.

Unless you have revolvers specifically chambered for .38 SC & LC save your self time and energy and forget about these. If all your guns are .38 Spl./.357 Magnum then stick with those cases. Then buy the .38 Spl./.357 die set.
