I just purchased reloading dies for a 32 ACP pistol and now am looking for a mold that may work with the 32 ACP, 7.62 Tokarev and 30 Mauser pistols that I have. Has anybody used the same mold for any or all of these with good results?

There are several Accurate molds which work in all three:

215913215915215916215917215919

If you don't know for a fact that your pistols will feed flat-nosed or JHP bullets shaped similarly to the Hornady .309" XTP, then the bullets I have found to work best in fussy pistols which don't feed anything but hardball, are the 31-087B, 31-087T or 31-093T. Any of these can be tweaked in diameters for your pistols and alloy.

The 31-100T nose is too long to work in the .32 ACP, but it works well in the .30 Mauser, 7.62x25 and .30 M1 Carbine.

I use the LEE 93grain boolit in .32acp, it works well in a FN 1900 and in a sauer&sohn H38.

For load data I use starting loads for a 85gr boolit. (Lyman cast bullet manual no4)

What alloy and powder charge do you use for .30 Tokarev?

Last time I shot my PPS with lead bullets, I think I was using 6.5 gr of Unique. It worked the action fine, but I would prefer a load w 231.
