good loads for venerable 32 S&W (short)
« on: August 23, 2009, 04:35:45 PM »
I could use info on loads for the 32 S&W, smokeless. I prefer Unique or Red Dot powder as I have these, approx 100 grain bullet. Anybody able to help me out?

What are you shooting this in?  I don't think that a 100 grainer is going to be suitable for the 32 S&W with it's limited case volume.  Lyman's Cast Handbook shows data for an 84 gr lead bullet (heaviest listing) for both powders, but a 15%+ jump in weight and reduced internal volume...
