Mine is not the Bain & Davis; it's the .44 Mag brass run through a .357 Automag die. I used to have an Automag with both .357 and .44 Automag barrels; ran a couple shells through the .357 Automag dies and then had Clymer (back when the family still ran the business) grind me a reamer. Did a couple N-frame cylinders; worked out real well.

Always wondered how the Clerke would feed, hear about them from time to time, guess ok.

Not so good...It takes a lot of experimentation to get the ramp and mag right...I still don't have it right...

In the Luger realm, I seem to be given a few 30 and 303Brit caliber rifle take off barrels now and then, so hence the 30 caliber Luger attempts here...I finally got tired of losing all of the real 30 Luger brass($$$) at the indoor range, and worked with the 9mmx19 necked up to 30 caliber that was posted here some years ago by a forum member across the pond....

That's the 9 x 19 brass run through a .30 Luger die??? I might try that...I've been making my .30 Luger cartridges from .223 Remington brass cut down & run through the .30 Luger dies...I did the same thing with the 7.63mm Broomhandle...
Pic attached...Stripper clip of Rube Goldberg 7.63mm Broomhandle (made from .223 Rem); one of the 7.63mm Broomhandle/Rube Goldberg cartridges; one 38/45 Clerke; a 357/44 bottleneck hull; and a loaded 357/44 bottleneck...
