MH WASH32 H&R mag, any favorite loads?
I recently picked up a Marlin to go with my Single Six. What are your favorite top end loads? I have both 85 and 100gr xtps.
Of course I already checked Steve's pages

MH WASHThere must be somebody out there shooting one of these.

GLCH110 works great with the 85 XTP's. I have one and love it. Can't remember the grains off hand so I don't want to post something wrong.
Check
http://www.marlinowners.com under Cowboy guns and search for 32 H&R data. There is a bunch posted there. I posted some with chrono data. I'm at work so don't have access to it right at the moment.
The 32 H&R is really a sweet shooter.
Good shooting.

Remington40x7.8 to 8.0 grains of IMR 2400 behind a 115-120 grain hard cast bullet seated out to near full cylinder length. Hyper accurate in my Ruger Bisley .32 H&R and in the two previous Rugers I owned. Not a load I'd fire in an S&W J-frame or an H&R or something similar, because I think you'll find it accelerates wear in the lightly constructed guns.

brent andradetry to keep the loads safe in both which will probably mean a comprimise some where as i found the hand guns like them hotter than the rifles , but here are my favorites , not max so try and adjust as you see fit ,all with 100 grain bullets or my old lyman swc of 98 grns 4.5 herco , 9 grs of h110 , 6 grains of unique .
