Thanks for the bump Keg. This thread was a great help. I have had the luck of receiving a 32spl from 1925 land in my lap a bit ago. My smith went over it and even though it looks like it got dragged around through the woods quite a bit, he said it had very little shots through it. He used the words "pristine mechanically and worthy". Was shocked. Other than a bent silver front sight that was replaced, it shoots the lever evolution bullet okay but not perfect. Need to learn it and start to play. Happy to know this old girl has such a respect with handloaders and casters. Should be a fun project. Sadly was out of casting due to life issues but no more. This site is awesome.
