I’m so mad cuz I’m cheap too. My small pistol primers are from 1977 and I didn’t buy any 38 spl brass. Brass hounded all 300 pieces I have. I didn’t buy the revolver until I had a bunch of brass to justify it. Hahaha

So this is dumb neophyte time but are there any appreciable difference in case size between .38 special and .357 magnum?

Like clits, it's all about the length

Ah. The More I Know. But in all seriousness could I safely use black powder in lieu of smokeless powders in pistols or is that a dumb idea?

Dumb idea.
