32 S&W data

[DX250]

I have been looking everywhere for 32 short load data with little success. All I have found are bullseye and unique. I do not have bullseye and unique does not meter well at all. no.2 or IMR PB would be best as I have them on hand. Boolit weight sh unknown as I am going to have a mold made by mountain Molds when I can get some good data. These are being shot in a Smith Safety hammerless top break.

Thanks

RCBS 32-84 over 1.5 grains PB. Gives about 660 FPS. Kind of dirty though.
