S&W Model 19
Taurus Model 65
All listed guns have 4" barrels.OTHER DESCRIPTION This is a nice, light practice load with very minimal recoil, while maintaining sufficiently good, if not absolutely optimal, precision. Slight/slender hands do not feel pain even after 500 shots with this load. It was developed for a female friend of mine so that she can regularly (and inexpensively) practice with the caliber she will actually use for self-defense. Kids also do very well with this load.
There was a very slight sacrifice of accuracy made to keep recoil down. For top accuracy with this wheel-weight bullet, use 4.2 to 4.3gr Bullseye instead of 3.9gr, though felt recoil increases a little. You can safely go as low as 3.3gr with the 4" barrel, and this feels just like a .22LR, but precision then suffers.SUBMITTED ON 24 Mar 2010 SUBMITTED BY Cowboy T Published on 10-16-2014 01:56 PM Number of Views: 5653LOAD DETAILS

Kel-Tec P3-ATOTHER DESCRIPTION THis round worked well in both the Bersa and the K-T. They were used for general target practice. I can't comment on the accuracy as the shooting was done freehand and at various distances. They seemed no different than any other round.

GUN TYPE .32-20 Winchester (.32 WCF)
FIREARM PISTOL LEAD TYPE Wheel Wts CALIBER TYPE 32-20 /.32 H&R Mag RATING 10 LEAD SIZE 115 POWDER TYPE Unique POWDER AMOUNT 4.2 Gr (4.5 Gr. MAX) PRIMER Fed. Sm. Pistol BRASS Starline BARREL LENGTH 3.5 In. F.P.S 900 +/- GROUP SIZE 1 to 1 1/2 Inchs @ 50 Ft. OVERALL LENGTH 3.5 Inches GUN DETAILS Cimarron/ Uberti Mod 1873 "P" Jr. 32-20 / 32 H&R Mag. Duel Cyl. (Size of 22 Single Six) The fit & finish outstanding, no cyl locking bolt drag line after 300 rounds: Problem with 115 gr blts sized .312 /3.8 gr unique it printed 10 in. low and 6 in. to right. Increasing the load to 4.2 grs. of unique and increased size to .314 dia. shrank the best groups to about an inch at 50 ft. from a sand bag rest. I then filed to front sight with try and error by about half. Opened the rear sight to the left and it now prints dead on. OTHER DESCRIPTION This is a great fun gun. I found an Original Winchester "nut cracker" tool in 32-20 WCF, on Ebay, that turns out neck sized rounds faster that a single stage press. The Lee case length gage in M-1 carbine will drop in as a replacement decapper, as it is often lost. I made a brass powder dipper from a cut down 9mm case with a wire handle that works great. Its not as fast as my Dillon, but its more fun. SUBMITTED ON 21 Feb 2007 SUBMITTED BY MStewardLeather
