    I'm sorry Pat, that did come off a bit terse, didn't mean it that way at all. I really was trying to help since I have experience with a very similar AM mould, and made a few handfulls of similar-looking boolits before I got the mould figured out. I'll try to be in less of a hurry and less of a buzzkill next time. Again, my apologies,

    That's O.K. Gear. No worries. Sometimes I react instead of act. My apologies to you too.

    Heck....mine are just frosted all over. I was admiring Pigslayer's two-tone bullets and wondering how he did that!

    Once again, beautiful work by Tom at Accurate Molds. Two 32 caliber bullets for the 32 S&W Long and the .32-20 Win.

    Well Tar Heel those are some nice boolits. Let us know how they shoot.

    Kinda looks like you did some polishing after you loaded, they are so shiny.

    Well heck, I can't post the grungy ones! The brass is brand new and I buffed up the bullets some too. They do look nice in that brand new brass. I wish I had a different bullet seating plug for that .32-20 seating die. I made need to turn one to keep from getting that ring on these bullets.

    These are real light loads. 2.0 grains of HP38 in the 32 S&W and 3.0 grains in the .32-20. Should be real pleasant to shoot. The .32-20 is a T/C barrel and the 32 S&W is a S&W.

    The 32-20 (3.0 grains of HP38) is a tac driver. I never would have guessed that since the bullets are sized .313 and the T/C bore is .308

    Perhaps there is something to those Lee style tumble lube grooves when run through a standard lubrisizer??

    Go figure.

    Those are some purdy boolits, Tar Heel(former one myself). I'd love to have a Winchester or Marlin in 32-20. I'll bet that's a sweet, soft shooter. In the T/C that caliber wouldn't' be bad but, no way I'd shoot 44 Mag in the T/C. I did that twice and it was like someone whacking me in the hand with a sawed off baseball bat. I just ain't into pain.

    Thanks for the compliment ColColt. The T/C 10" bull barrel has always been a sweet shooter in this caliber. Seems I have accumulated some odd ball calibers over the years. I just looked at their current caliber line-up and was a little shocked to see the offerings available. The T/C .32-20 is actually sized .308 so shooters could use .308 varmint bullets in the barrel. That is why I originally bought it whilst living in the hills of Virginia. Since no self-respecting whistle-pig lives in the Piedmont area of NC (too sandy) I figured I would put the rear sight back on it and use her for plinking or squirrel hunting. I saw that bullet on the Accurate Mold web site and figured I would give it a try. I'm glad I did.

    Used to have a 32-20 revolver 30 years ago, a Ruger I think, but traded it in on something else. I wish I had that now.
