32 S&W long at 50 yds.

Post by agentr »

Hello,

I've been on the search for a mold to decrease the cost of shooting my Pardini HP32. I did research on this mold and found other fellow shooters that agree whole-heartedly. The Saeco #323 bullet mold, produces bullets that shoot better or as good as the H&N or even Lapua bullets. I am the timid sort, and before investing $160 in a four gang mold, I'd kinda like to try a few. I offer to anybody out there... If I send you some bucks for shipping, and your trouble, would you send me 50 of these lubed and ready to test? I'd just feel better knowing these will work good in my VERY finicky pistol before I end up with a $160 fishing sinker. LOL

Thanks for your time

Cast Bullets

Post by fc60 »

Greetings,

Most of the Pardini HP barrels I have encountered measure 0.313" to 0.314" groove diameter.

Be sure to ask for bullets sized to 0.314" cast of a soft alloy. I have found that hard alloys tend to foul the barrel throat quickly.

Please scan and post your test target results on the forum so we can all improve our scores.

Cheers,

Dave

Hi Dave,
We've seen some of your targets on this forum. Do you hold your guns in a fixed and firm clamp when you test them, or do you handhold from a sandbag rest?

32 Testing

Post by fc60 »

Greetings,

I use a mechanical rest/fixture for testing barrels and ammunition.

I get comparable results using a sandbag and 7X scope attached to the pistol. I place a black one inch paster on a white sheet of paper at 50 yards. You can easily align the crosshairs on the corner of the paster.

Cheers,

Dave

Try these. You can get them in several sizes. Not sure what mould he uses, but they fly great at 50.
