Anyone have load data for the 32 H&R Mag using a 120gr cast bullet?

Here's some 110 grain info.  I'd be willing to use the starting loads under 120 grain bullets. Dunno I would go any higher than that, though.

In my Ruger Super Single Six w/6 1/2" barrel I use 10.5 gr of H110 with a 118 gr GC Lyman 311316.  It runs 1174 fps.  I also use 4 gr of Unique which runs 1005 fps.

Try 4.3-4.5gr of 800X.  Gets almost 1000fps out of a 4 5/8" Ruger.

32 loads with donuts

I use 8.5 grains of wcc820 witha 120 grain Saeco bullet. Sometimes I even add a little sugar from my donuts to sweeten the load. (just kidding, for the dummies that don't understand humor)GR and I have a donut fued ongoing started by some Norwegians from North Dakota.
 I absolutly love my 32 single six. It is about perfect for much of my handgun needs. My 45 Colt with a 310 Keith is more useful on the mountain of course. That little Saeco bullet sure makes a loud slap when they hit  a jackrabbit or prairie dog. I even get through and through penetration on bull picket pins. Enjoy that little gun!!!!!!!!

frank405,
What's the velocity variation between Krispy Kreme, Dunkin and/or Daylight?  Or are you pinching pennies and using the WalMart  day olds again?
Is the carbon build up similar between the different manufacturers?

I here McKevin is having success using baby carrots in the 32 H&R as a rabbit baiting load.  Any word on his progress?

In all seriousness, thanks for the load data.  My WC820 should be here tomorrow.  Are we using magnum primers for the 32 H&R with the slower powders?

And the number of 32s will soon be 2 for me.

Thanks again, Glenn

rabbit loads and donuts

I am working on a top secret combination of Daylight Donuts and baby carrots. The pointy carrots for long range and the blunt ones for those close shots. Day old donuts make a fine base wad to launch carrots at unheard of velocities and dismal accuracy. But maybe because of the shooter the accuracy wasn't so good. I'll take some to the Norwegians soon and try them on various fauna and flora.
 The fouling with powdered donuts is pretty bad but ok with glazed as long as the velocity isn't too high, like 32.591 feet per second. The fly swaater pistol has been getting a workout too. Although the WFN design projectile will not shoot at long range(6 feet or more) it does ok on smaller pests. The Miller moths will take several hits and keep coming requiring a fast reload. The dogs are grasping the severity of the situation and helping retrieve the projectile which is a great help mostly.
