My .32-20 fired once, then w/o good dies it split on the second firing. I shot a 90 gr. XTP at about 900 fps using 4227. It shoots pretty well. Very interesting mechanicals.

Will the factory brass take too much challenge

out of it? How pricey for the PPV?

Plenty funky still, it's 1/4" longer than .32-20

and bigger around. The PPV was a little cheaper. Cost us $55 for two boxes of (50) to the house. Dies are around $40 from LEE. It's sort of a magnum .32-20 and about on the same level as the .32 H&R. But you have to remember that was over 100 yrs. ago too. I think the flat nose FMJ has more smack than you'd think. Probably rivals the 9mm RN.

Sounds fun! Ammo price doesn't sound bad

for some obscure brass. I paid like $45 for a box of Remington 32 wcf when I first bought a SW hand ejector.
