Load Data Help for 32-20

Post by Phil Morris »

I have a couple of Winchester 92s (mfg 1905 & 1909) in 32-20 that I am gearing up to reload plinking rounds for. For y'all who currently load 32 WCF, I would love to know what are your favorite loads you have developed. Also, it would be great to get started using components I have on hand. I have here 500 94 grain .312 Lead Flat Nosed GC cast bullets and for powders I have Trail Boss, Accurate 2460, H4895 and LeveRevolution. Any advice in that regard is appreciated.

I don't load for the caliber. I did notice that Lyman has some recommendations for powders that worked for them with cast bullets.

My family has a 1904-ish Colt SAA originally issued as a Texas Ranger side arm (as mentioned before) and it's quite a bit weaker than an 1892. I use a 115 grain LRN over 7.X grains of 2400 and no gas check.

Thanks guys. I finally dug up some load data using Trail Boss. I'm going to give it a try as soon as I can scare up some small rifle primers. This shortage of everything ammo related is a real pain in the butt.
