Picked up a really nicely maintained 319295 off of fleabay recently. Sprue screw is almost mint, no mangled screws, no lead on it that I can see. When things slow down a bit, I want to cast some up for my Dad's 32-40. The bore is @.321-.322, but the mold should cast larger than the size-to diameter. Hoping to luck out and be able to seat the GC and lube, with very little sizing.

My 319295, casts .322 with 20/1 alloy. I might pick up .0005 if I were to cast with #2 alloy.

Lymans "Hand Book of Cast Bullets" (1958) lists the normal cast size at .320 so, you'll have to see what yours casts at.
