Outstanding, I can't watch the vid right now but that sounds like Steyr/Mannlicher dimensions. Looks like I need to get into casting my own bullets then!

Yep and he mentioned using the 7.62x54 brass like you mentioned.. Guy had some good points. And showed a target he shot.
I wonder if you can get a gas checked bullet like that size.. or if paper patching could be an option.

32ACP is a tapered case and won't work with the 32 short and long dies. I load all three and have no problem with the 32acp using the proper die set. I cast a 77 grain plain base bullet and run it through a lyman sizer/luber and they work great. Only have a two cavity lee mold, but they work fine.

Blitz, noted. Need to look at the dimensions more...

Swamp, Hungarian could very well be it, and it is 8x56r so that's a very real probability. I'll measure mine and see what the dimensions are (The old still together 8x56r)
