32-40 bullets..where in Canada

Got mine from the Bullet Barn as well, however I think they were too hard and or too small for my old Win 94( Nothing wrong with Bullet Barns product, just did not work in my gun)
I orderd a 8MM mould .323 from Henry on this site hopeing that that the .323 will be a better fit as well as casting some softer bullets will work better

Yea Read on a US site one should slug the bore before selecting a bullet.

Guess I should do that before i go asking for a particular bullet size and weight.

Yes after some very disappointing results at the range I slugged the bore on my rifle , it measured .322. the gun is old ( 1896 ) and the bore shows it, so after some good advise on here it was suggested to go softer lead and slightly oversize so the bullet will fill out the bore better,. And I will will be shooting pretty mild loads some where around 1200fps Have not got the mould yet so will have to see how it works out. By the way any pros out ther if you see anything wrong with my plan or have further advise please chime in ( sorry for the bit of a thread pilfer but it may help the OP as well as my self )
