Anybody know where I can purchase a .36 caliber wad hand punch for making wads for my Navy? I know it needs to be 3/8" diameter, but I'm having trouble finding one.

You may have to buy an entire set just to get the one you want, but sets made in China are cheap. Something like $10 or less. You may be able to use the other punches for other calibers, or uses.

See the Buffalo Arms website at http://www.buffaloarms.com.
Buffalo Arms of Ponderay, Idaho offers a variety of wad punches. The drill-press mounted kind is $20, in calibers .38, .40, .44, .45 and .50. The hammer-struck wad punch is $18 each, in .32, .38, .40, .43, .44, .45, .50 rifle calibers. 38-40, 44-40 and 45 pistol calibers. The reloading press-mounted wad punch is made in calibers .25 to 12 gauge and costs $52 to $75, depending on size. The press-mounted wad punch will shell out hundreds of wads in an hour, if that

I bought a set at Harbor Freight. I bought some construction insulation felt at the building supply store and make my own. Just make sure to lube them heavy and they work fine for me....

You can get a regular 3/8" punch at every hardware-store. 3/8" = 0.375", the regular size of a ".38" revolver-chamber.
Cost is very much less than the BP supply sources.
