Any interest in a clone of the lyman 32359? A lightweight for the 8mm, 32-40 weighing 115 grs with plain base. Also well suited for the 8mm lebel revolver. (Mle 1892) I have a 2 cavity that casts small at .323, so something a little larger? Any input?

Here is an old Lee GB boolit........ the 8mm Plinker....... weighs about 140 gr. and is an excellent light small game/plinker for the various 8mm's & 32 rifles.

It's really spec'd to be about .010 too large for the 32-20.

Not quite enough to go active, but getting there.

I'll find out if hollow point could be an option if it goes active.

I'm thinking a couple of different sizes,.326 for 8mm applications, and .330 for the lebel revolver (or lightweight lebel rifle bullet)?

Thanks zombies. If u decide to offer it in two sizes (like .414 and 423) I wouldnt get upset and argue with you. :)

mine casts .324 and i shoot it quite a bit in 8MMs.I'd be in for a 4 cavity NOE its sort of a 3118 in 32 caliber and quite a nice gallery bullet.I killed quite a few squirrels with it.

I'm thinking .323-.324 for my 32-40(custom barrel)...I think .326 may be a little big.

I would be in. I am with johnny356er though ... I think .326 might be a little too big for my 32 Winchester Special.

This boolit sizes very easily. I've sized the 8mm plinker down to 0.316" in a push thru with no problems what-so-ever. I've also got drawings of this in about 9 other calibers. The nice thing about this design is that you can have the cherry in 30 caliber size allowing most any size above it to be cut. MiHec has allready done that with the hollow base wadcutter molds.

mpbarry1,

.414" and .423" are going to be tough to stuff in a 32 or 8mm case.
