Re: Is it likely that a .32 S&W long wadcutter can be reloaded on a progressive?

I load 32 S&W long loads with a progressive reloader in a 2-stage process for a Pardini with a Dave Wilson barrel that holds X-ring from a Ransom Rest at 50 yards with my loads. I have tried many of the suggestions in this thread and all over this and other forums to get accurate/consistent powd...

Re: Yet another cleaning thread

I cannot attest to the best cleaning method; but, I can share my process and the results of it. I shoot a 2018 Pardini SPBE and disassemble it and clean it after most shoots (e.g., 90 rounds) with 2 patches - a few passes from a patch damp with Hopps #9 and then follow with a few passes from a dry p...

Re: Pardini SP BE Keyholed at 50'

FC60 - Nice to hear from you Dave. Always appreciate your insight. The crown on this gun is fine. And, it was holding X-Ring at 50 yards this fall with TenX and Midas from a RR. CCI std was all but one of the 10 shots in the X-Ring. I am chalking this keyhole up to a bad CCI round. BTW, I have one o...

Pardini SP BE Keyholed at 50'

Anyone ever experience keyholing at 50' with a Pardini SP BE? Durning the indoor Winter League last evening with my Pardini SP BE 5", all 10 slow fire shots were in the black and on call except for one which keyholed ~ 4+" low. The other 50 shots were all on call. I bought the gun new in 2...

Re: Pardini SPBE .32 S&W failure to feed problem

I have been having this exact problem for about 4 weeks. I have done extensive trouble shooting with clips, crimps (changing bullets (H&N, Lapua, & Meister), bullet seating depth, amount of crimp, and taper vs rolled). Normally, this is my favorite centerfire pistol. It just shoots on call a...
