Does anyone in the listening area reload 32 S&W (.600)? Not 38 but 32.
 
I have a 32 S&W H&R but I bought it needing repairs and just haven't got around to it yet. I understand the cartridge originated as a black powder cartridge and older guns may not be strong enough to handle smokeless powder.
 
I've loaded the .32 S&W Long and above, but I'm not even sure if this die set is suitable for the .32 S&W...
I'm not in your area anyways!
 
I actually have a S&W 32 (short) old style lee reloading set up. I like to call them the "whackOround" die set. Has to be the most torture you can find reloading

heres what I have it works but its slow http://www.ebay.com/itm/LEE-LOADER-...ITION-AND-NO-LONGER-OFFERED-MFG-/200662389180. I have a die set for my new loader but have not bothered to buy bullets or a mold to cast my own yet.
Im currently striken with Garanditis and EBRsyndrom

I have a new unused set of RCBS dies for the .32 S&W, and some once-fired brass (I think about 100 rounds). Had a collection of .32 and .38 S&W Safety Hammerless revolvers, but sold all but one .38 to cover back taxes. Never did pick up a bullet mold, though.

Not sure what your question is. If you are looking for loading data, I can check what is listed in the sheet that came with the dies. I also have several reloading manuals, so could probably find more info.

If it is the dies you are looking for, send a PM.
