Reforming 32-20 Brass is an option and I have researched how to do it.

Have you considered using 32=20 Starline brass necked down to 25? Starline also suggests the practice. I have a Colt Bisley revolver from the 19 teens in 32-20 that I use Starline brass and I am well pleased. Just my $0.02. I would love to get a lever gun to go with my Bisley that didn't cost a arm and leg.

Went to the range to test some reloads with my chrono.
Target at 15yrd
Not much distance but first time seeing any groups from this rifle.
The Magnetometer may alter trajectory in addition.

Mid left, Reminton so 86gr 1430 fps average
Top left 86gr MBC coated 9.5 H4891. Got a no data reading so had to reset and put a few thru.
Top right. Same as above average 1410 fp
Mid right same bullet 9.4 h4198 ave, 1390
Bottom left 86gr MBC 3.5 Trailboss 1100 ave
Bottom right 3.4 TB 1050 ave

Raining here today, so I loaded up 10 of the 9.4 H 4198 loads with a 85 gr cast.
Stepped out on the back porch and went to swinging the 6" gong, 8 out of ten.
It's roughly 50yds to the gongs.
Will see about some paper later on this weekend when the rain subsides.
