My Shaver long range Ferris rifle is still on order after two years (it was promised to me a year ago). Wished I had went with the Pedersoli Gibbs.

Sounds like a plan. Have also been looking into AA9. It seems to be a popular powder for the .32 Miller Short.

Thanks for everyone's opinion. Pete, my thoughts have been basically the same as what you are shooting. What design boolit are you using? The mould I have ordered cast a tapered 300 gr. grease...
