Any member recommendations as to a good supplier, can't see buying a Lyman mold for this one .
Since, for some reason Lee won't produce a .32 auto weight mold ?
something around 70gr or so.
If your using a supplier, chime in.

I know...tough to find. FWIW, the Lee 93g does shoot well....but we both know that 93g is a bit heavy...meaning slooow. My Lee 6X drops at a nominal 94.1g @ .3124" and I size right at .311.
I'm fortunate though, I found an antique Lyman 311242 2X at a flea market (what a pain to make pistol bullets with a 2X!). Unfortunately, my pistol likes (loves!) Remington Gold Dots (60g) over...get this...Power Pistol! I think I found the recipe on Alliant's site- with a velocity of 900+fps. I think the cited velocity is feces but I haven't passed the round through my chrony yet. My point is that it really shoots well with the Remington J-word.

My Lyman mould works great for 32 ACP. I load it for one Mauser and two berettas

They are listed for 32 H&R but the work great in all my 32 ACP's.

I have been using bullets from Rim Rock. They make bullets for Buffalo Bore ammo. Nice bullets.

Western Bullet Co., Missoula Montana Lyman #311252, 75 Gr.
I took a lee 6 cavity .311-93 and milled off a grease groove to make it a 72grn bullet that shoots GREAT!!!

I'm pretty sure there was a thread some years ago showing how to mill off the top of a Lee mold to get the weight down to around 70grs. Maybe a search would turn it up.
While I was two-finger typing, 43pu beat me to it.

I have heard of that, but don't have a mill, was considering using a milling attachment on my lathe and trying a fly cutter in the chuck ?
Did you do the milling ?, I always thought there maybe a nice little side income for someone willing to do these for resale, as long as one has the equipment, time and kept the cost reasonable.

Agreed on the 93gr being over the top for an ACP, have the mold, never tried it. what powder and charge were/are you using for that load-out ?
I am a big fan of Power Pistol for auto loaders, P.P. and light bullets/boolits makes the .32acp a real stinger.
