WTB 9.3x74R brass

I need a couple pieces of 9.3x74R brass to prove the viability of making brass to fit a weird .40 caliber chamber in a Ballard I bought this weekend. (Chamber dimensions: .463 head diameter, .435 chamber mouth, 2.125" long, straight taper.) 9.3x74R cases appears to be my best bet for parent brass, hence my request. If it proves viable I'll go ahead with scrounging a supply of fresh stuff.

Nivens McTwisp is leading me down yet another branch of the tunnel!

I have some 9.3x72r that has been shortened to 2.224, expanded to .366 and neck turned for use in a 9.3x57r (360 BPE), will that work?

Ballards may be weaker,
but they sure are neater!

Yep, but like I said - I don't want to lay out a bunch of cash for something that may not work. This is a real oddball chamber.
