I just purchased reloading dies for a 32 ACP pistol and now am looking for a mold that may work with the 32 ACP, 7.62 Tokarev and 30 Mauser pistols that I have. Has anybody used the same mold for any or all of these with good results?

There are several Accurate molds which work in all three:

If you don't know for a fact that your pistols will feed flat-nosed or JHP bullets shaped similarly to the Hornady .309" XTP, then the bullets I have found to work best in fussy pistols which don't feed anything but hardball, are the 31-087B, 31-087T or 31-093T. Any of these can be tweaked in diameters for your pistols and alloy.
The 31-100T nose is too long to work in the .32 ACP, but it works well in the .30 Mauser, 7.62x25 and .30 M1 Carbine.

The ENEMY is listening.
HE wants to know what YOU know.
Keep it to yourself.
Lee 6 CAVITY 311-93-1R
Great in 7.62 Tokarev and 30 Mauser
Not sure of 32 ACP,
next to a 458-500
What alloy and powder charge do you use for .30 Tokarev?
Last time I shot my PPS with lead bullets, I think I was using 6.5 gr of Unique. It worked the action fine, but I would prefer a load w 231.
