32RF reloading data

[danyboy]

There is a reloading kit sold in Europe to reload 32RF and it uses .22 caps as primers inro 32RF cases. They suggest to use only black powder.
Anybody has any idea how much black powder could be used ?

With a black powder cartridge you must fill the case completely. NO AIR SPACE.

Dixie Gunworks in the U.S. has something similar. do a search at their site.

The bullet is a heeled bullet like a .22. I just fill the case to about the base of the bullet and press the slug in place. I use .27 cal Hilti shells in my home made cases, rather than .22 blanks --- they are easier to get locally.

I just pull the leads out of 22 shorts dump the powder and fill the cases I got from dixie gunworks to the top with black powder.

[MauserMike]

Is there a heeled bullet or bullet mold available for these, rather than using a round ball?

mooncoon what caliber is the Phenix in?
John

It is .38 rimfire. Only the second Phoenix that I have seen and I traded it from the fellow with the first one :>) I have shot a number of rimfires from .25 up to .57 (werndl rifle). They are interesting but also fairly anemic plus a bit of a nuisance to load for.
