Accurate No 2 load data for .32 Long/ .32 H&R Mag

[Jeff Michel]

I seem to be having trouble finding any data for either caliber using Accurate #2. I'm curious if anyone has used it and to what degree of success they have experienced. Thanks

Accurate #2 is one of the best powders for 32 target loads. A good load is 1.8 grains with a 98 wadcutter. I never tried it with 32 mags as it is a fast powder. I would think it would be okay for light to mid level loads.

ive loaded 32 specials with 2.0 grains of pr200 and a 98 rcbs bullet (same powder as aa2) I don't know if that's hot for a smith though. I shot them out of a single six. Ive shot a ton of lead using that same bullet in the 32 mag with 3.5 grains of it too along with a ballistic cast 100 grain swc

Thank you Gentlemen. That gives me a place to start.
