The parts are too tiny.  My brother used to reload it for his sock gun.

Time for you to buy a Square Deal B.

I do it on a Dillon 550b.  Not much different than 9mm.

We do have a reloading forum.  ;-)

Anyway.  .380 isn't that hard to load for.  Case capacity is small enough that it is one of the few handgun calibers where it is worth sorting by headstamp, as that can affect pressure.

I generally like to use W231 for the .380.

Grab a lee die set and xtreme bullets. Very cheap quick way to get into it. I reload it for my glock 42
