Was given a couple of pounds of Unique. I would like to try this in a Martini Cadet chambered in 32 Spec. with a 125 to 170 gr bullet. Has anyone tried this?

Do you have any trouble chambering the 32 special in the little martini?

Good luck finding light weight bullets for that thing. And good luck shooting it with the 170 grain. Even with 12 to 14 grains Unique mine kicked like a mule with 170.

Lyman used to make a 120'ish grain mould for 8mm Mauser, they could be sized to 322 or shot as is depending on your bore. NOE also makes a 130gr FN for 8mm,.
