32hr mag

[warzaw]

I picked up a bunch of 71` grain Sierra FMJ bullets that were for 32ACP . My question is can I use them in my 32 Mag and does anyone have any loading data worked up as there is no loading manual data available. Thanks for any help.

Thanks for the reply but I am looking for 71 grain jacketed data for the 32HRM it's not listed in any of the manuals I have . I could go cold turkey with a load but I am not comfortable with that approach .

None of my manuals even have data for 71gr in a .32S&W long either. Make it up as you go along.

This may help as it is for the 71 grain bullet.

Sorry, for whatever reason my brain didn't realize you wrote 71gr instead of 77gr. I'll keep looking, lol.

That's all I can find in my online sources for your cartridge.
Good luck.

Found what I was looking for in the Lyman reloading handbook 49th edition. Lots of 32HR Mag data for the powders I have on hand to go with the wack of 71fmj I have on hand , looks like that 9 grain Blue Dot load may be to hot.
