32 caliber 909 day 1

Marvin,
I've been looking at your numbers again and reading what you and others have said about this 32 cal long barrel.  You have a real variety of bullet weights that seem to work well with that gun.  I am impressed with the high velocites the lightweight bullets are giving.  I've run into situations where extra barrel doesn't make much difference, but looks like yours works well.
I didn't see any bullets in your testing between 45 and 81 gn.  Seems like something in the  65 gn neighborhood might be pretty versatile with the set up you have.
What do you think?

BTW, just a general thanks for all the data you post.

I agree with what you say about the 60-65 grain bullet . But that means another custom mold at $ 85.00 . So 45 grains for paper and light wind and 81 or 88 for hunting and windy days at the range . I have another project that the money will be used for .
Most BB do not manage their air well and can take a longer barrel . Especially the Koreans which have such short barrels to start with . This one was only 21 1/2 I believe . Marvin

Yes, it's good to have a couple of proven winner bullets, for each for big bore.   You don't have that luxury sometimes with springers.

I know what you mean about the money.  I'll think long and hard about a new gun purchase, but in between guns I'll buy enough nickle and dime stuff to have bought another gun anyway.
