Donnely's is also a good one. I haven't been able to locate Nonte's but, in fairness I haven't looked very hard since I got Donnely's.

Other than the title, there is little in common. Nonte talks about how and why. Donnely's book looks like a bad spreadsheet that someone forgot to finish.
A good "other" book is
Designing and Forming Custom Cartridges For Rifles and Handguns Hardcover

That's you opinion. It's saved my bacon several times and has all the information I've ever needed.

bpimwheel--- I found 2 boxes of old once fired 32 REM. in my junk. You pay shipping, I send them to you.
I needed some 32rem several years ago, found someone helpful like rayh, then I purchased more from Graf. It's good to know that it can be made from 30-30 in a pinch but it just wasn't worth the trouble and testing when a reasonably priced option like Graf was available.
