Does anyone have a good load for 32-20 using H110 and 115 Gr Cast Bullets. I want to say around 20,000 cup. I am using Star-Line brass and CCI small rifle primer. This load will be used in an Early Model Marlin 94 I just rebuilt and a Marlin Model 27 I am currently building.

Would add picture, but this is smarter than me!

Thanks in advance

Pat

In my Speer #11 manual it it gives a load for the 110 gr bullet and H110.

16.0 max
14.0 min

This might give a good starting point. For a 130 gr it is just 1 gr less on min and max. These loads are tested in a T/C 14" barrel.
you might also check out Steves Pages.

Rad,
Thanks for the info, did your manual give the pressures for these loads?

I will check out stevespages.

Thanks again

The Lyman #48 list pressure but not H 110.A good chance that if you start with the minimum charge you will be ok. I have an older Lyman book (45th) and it gives higher charges and the 48th tops out at 16,000 cup.

Will start at 13 grains and go from there.

I added a picture of the Marlin 94 I restored.

Thanks Rad

I am having trouble adding pictures. Will try a couple more.

This is how I received the Marlin, in pieces. No stock, forearm, magazine, or barrel.

The end product.

The stock and receiver on a previous post.
