I see Outpost75 likes the Accurate's 31-087T mold, so the question is are there any retail casters selling bullets from that mold. As I can't cast at my apartment right now and where I shoot there isn't any electric yet I want to find 500-1000 bullets to load for my .32 ACP's. I like and carry a 1911 but my with me from paints on to paints off is a 1903 Colt in .32 ACP. I don't shoot the 1911 any better than the 1903 but double and triple taps from the .32 is so much faster.

I am not aware of anyone making 31-087T or 31-094H for sale, but Matt's Bullets has a suitable 90-grain .32 S&W, .32-20 and .32 ACP bullet in:

Which works fine in most pistols with 2 grains of TiteGroup, 2.2 grains of Bullseye, 2.5 of 231 or HP38 or 3 grains of AutoComp at a minimum ctg. OAL of 0.95" in your Colt. This LRN bullet will feed best in the Colt at an OAL approximating factory hardball from 0.955-0.975". While I have not used it myself, I got favorable reports from others unable to cast in apartments, etc. who found it satisfactory when crimping into the top lube groove.

Thank you, will order some from him. I carry 2.2 gr Red Dot, Winchester small pistol primers, cast lead Hunter Supply 76 gr FP sized to .313, OAL .943. Reading you post I bought the molds you talk about and was going to start casting but apartment said no so will be about 8 months before I will have 2 wells, 2 septic systems, house, and a 50X100 heated and air conditioned shop built. My place sold to quick forcing me into an apartment.
