Are you going to use a small amount of powder in those galley loads Hatch
Mostly likely as that seems to be the recommended method. First I’ll try both a standard and magnum primer alone and then add a little bit of powder. Seems like the suggested amount is a 22lr case full. Love that exact science. :lol: Bullseye is recommended but I don’t have any. I do have Unique and Power Pistol which are pretty close to Bullseye on the burn chart.

Nice bunch of brass. Remember the .32 ACP. is semi rimmed and will work in most .32 revolvers.
I have always heard that but never tried it until yesterday. As I plan to shoot these round ball gallery loads in my Ruger SP 101 327 I tried some 32 acp ammo in it. Extracted perfectly.
I wonder if they would also fit/shoot/cycle in a Henry 327 Fed Mag :?:

32 ACP will also fit/shoot in old black powder 32 revolvers, but not a good idea. Those old revolvers can't take the pressure of a modern 32 ACP ammo.

A .22 short case full of bullseye always worked for me. Reddot is almost the same burning rate.

I thought about that too. I’m guessing that with the low velocity of my gallery load the ball may not clear the 20” barrel.
