I mentioned a Lyman [cast] bullet #32362 referenced in the Handloaders Manual Of Cartridge Conversions as being suitable for the 8mm Nambu, sized to .321". I emailed Lyman about this bullet, as I couldn't find anyone who stocked it. Here's their replies -

We have only made bullet moulds. We have not sold the bullets themselves.

Unfortunately this mould has been discontinued for many years. It was last made in the 70's as a limited production item.

I don't cast...

Sieger mentioned that Nambu extractors are hard to find when they break or 'spring'. Don Schlickman makes new ones...Don had this to say -

I do make extractors but usually have the customer send me the bolt for me to install the extractor, there is no charge for this. There are to many differences in the dove tail cut dimensions that they may not be interchangeable so I can't guarantee the fit otherwise
