I liked Accurate Mould's 31-112L Lyman 311316 inspired bullet for the 32-20, but I wanted a plain base version. This allowed an extra lube groove as well. I emailed Tom with my proposed modifications to his 31-112L and a few days later he replied back with a modified mould designated 31-112M. I promptly put it on my Christmas list with all the details, in case my wife decides to get it for me. If I don't see it under the tree, however, then I will be placing my order right after Christmas. Here it is ... http://www.accuratemolds.com/bullet_detail.php?bullet=31-112M-D.png My experience with a wide variety of 32-20 bullets says that this bullet, with its two lube grooves, plain base, forward driving band, and a healthy amount of its mass between the forward driving band and the base, will be a very accurate bullet.

I really like the looks of this bullet. The forward driving band should agree with the throats of a few revolvers I shoot in 32-20 and 327. Ordered one today...went .314 to match throats. Thanks Kirk for your efforts on this...and sharing your ideas.

Well, Kirk? Did Mrs D decide you were a good enough boy lasy year? ;-) Looking forward to a range report, looks like a winner.

Yep! She got me the mould for Christmas. Now I need a free Saturday where the temperature is above freezing to cast up a bunch.

How can anyone own a new mold for almost 2 weeks without pouring lead, freezing or not:confused:

Kirk,
Hurry and cast some boolits!!!! Let us know how they perform. Are you using them in a rifle or revolver? Wonder how they would perform in my Browning model 53 in 32-20??
Thanks!
Jim

Oops, forgot all about this mould. Got a 314008 from NOE and looking good so far.
