I bought some of these at Dixie years ago, and they really shoot well out of an old Tingle mule ear. Been looking for the TC mold, but can't find it nowhere! Anybody got one of the molds for sale or trade? :coffee:

Jim -
There was an attempt last year to get a 32 Maxi group buy going . There was some interest but the buy sort of fizzled out. Maybe this would be a good time to try to re-start it . Just search "32 Maxi " in the Group Buy forum .

Or you can buy them cast from Underhammers. (http://underhammers.com/blackpowderbullets.htm)

I would look into some other .32 molds with the right diameter and weight range - might shoot every bit as good as the maxi and even load easier.

Wow! I bid the first one - but who are these guys bidding on the second? It wasn't that great a bullet. Thanks a bunch for the listing - as much as I buy on ebay I've never searched for the mold there. Don't know why - other than old age.

Hornady double ended swaged wadcutters shoot very nicely in my .32 caplock either pp or with a .005 linen patch. Douglas barrel. Same load, same poi at 25 and 50 yards as Hornady "0" buckshot patched. BvT

That other listing was cancelled after I bid. That's ebay.

I don't have my catalogue with me, but NEI makes maxi-ball molds for .36 and I beleive they also do .32's
