Just ran across what seems to be a great deal on a 4-cav specimen of this mould. I know it's intended for .30 cal rifle use, but has anyone here ever tried it in a revolver such as .32 H&R or .327 Federal? Seems like it might be a decent candidate for powdercoating.

I have tried it in both the 32-20 and the 327. Mine casts at about 123 grains, but is a little skinny for my 32-20's. My Single 7 shot it OK, but I had to seat it quite deep.
It is a great boolit, though. I have loaded oodles of them in 30-30's for chickens, turkeys and pigs when I was in the Lever action silhouette game.
