I just bought some misc. reloading stuff and there was some 9mm win mag brass in there. I do not know anything about this round. Never heard of it. Would like to know a little something about it. It is about the same size as the 38 special. Thanks

  Dates back to the late 70's.
  
  It was developed by Winchester for the WILDEY, gas operated pistol. That probably never went into full-scale production. Believe some Contender barrels were chambered for it also.
  
  The gun-rags of that time period give the cartridge and the Wildey pistols a lot of ink. It was all so much hot-air.

  Before you could buy 9mm Largo brass I used to trim down 9mm mag brass to Largo length.

  You can also use it to make 9MM Mauser and 7.63 Mauser.

  The 9mm Win. Mag was also chambered in the IAI (later AMT) Automag III from 1990 to '92.
  Most were .30 Carbine.
