    I still have them but for all reduced loads I now follow and use this


    Good luck!
    Well this I very much what I’m going for but might more than I want to spend as 303 cases are old military brass I got for free and sink ww separated from my smelts or zink strips from roofs it are off at work

    32 acp aren't illegal in Canada. Just the firearms. Good luck finding ammo for a Prohibited firearm.
    I've had decent luck with TrailBoss or other shotgun powders for reduced loads.
    Give TrailBoss a try, as I've had better luck with it than RedDot

    I wouldn't worry to much about annealing the case head by heating up with the zinc.
    After pouring the zinc let the case cool very slowly.
    when the case is cool you should anneal the neck.

    Brass anneals and hardens the opposite of steel.
    Cool it slow and it hardens.
    Cool it fast and it anneals.

    This is why cases are dumped in water after heating the necks.

    The one with the pencil pointed at it scavenged some more 303 brass from the bin and will use them to make a couple more may use one of my extra decaping pins to keep a nice hole straight down the middle hopefully it works
