Newbie to casting and I've got a Lyman 311316 mold coming for my 32-20 and want to be sure I get the correct size gas checks. Thank you.

If I am not mistaken you need 30 cal checks. As the mold is a 30 cal mold that should drop around 311. I might and possible am wrong. If I am someone with much more knowledge will be here to correct me.

Hopefully I am not thouhh.

As mentioned, 30 cal GCs are what is needed. I've used the old and new Lymans,Hornadys and my own GCs on my own 311316 and all work equally well.

I'm lucky enough to have bought one of those molds a number of years ago. I've always used 30 cal Hornady gaschecks in mine. The 30 cal checks that I bought from Blammer do just as nicely. That particular mold, when sized for use in 30-30 leverguns works really well.
