I picked this mold for 32 ACP 75 grain RNFP Ranch Dog design with tumble lube grooves. Finally getting set up to try it and find the bullet having a fat diameter the front binds in the magazine until seated to at least a .939 or less COAL. I have read that less than .940 is minimum to avoid increased chance of one cartridge sliding forward so that it locks rims with the next and fails to feed.
My thinking is since the bullet probably can't move forward with the fat nose touching the inside front of the magazine along the sides where magazine tapers it should be OK but thought I would ask here to see if someone had some experience to share for this sort of situation. That hitting the sides with the front edges of the bullet is why the OAL had to be reduced. Simply wouldn't feed up without getting wedged.
I'm planning on using 1.8 grains of Unique to start. This is published starting load data for an 85 grain cast bullet but this bullet will be seated a bit deeper and is 5 grains lighter. Seemed like a fair trade off as far as pressure goes.
Bullets are sized to .311 and tumble lubed before and after sizing.
This is the mold, mine are dropping at 80 grains but I think that is due to using a 50/50 WW/Pb + Sn alloy which is a touch heavier than straight WW's listed for the mold specifications. I was thinking I would PC these after I got a load and bullet configuration worked out so a little softer alloy would work fine. Hope I didn't make a mistake with that since I cast ~700 of them.
