Strange .32ACP question
Hi. I am attempting to handload a wadcutter load for the .32ACP. I do gelatin testing and have posted some of my results into the appropriate forums here for about a year. Essentially, I am looking to evaluate the terminal performance of this load, due to the 'cleaner cutting' properties of the wadcutter shape. I know this is kindof an odd-ball question, but any help is appreciated.
In general, what is the approach to loading bullets heavier than tabulated for a particular cartridge? Just looking at the length of the wadcutter bullets, I would assume that they would have to be pushed deeper into the case, so that a nearly compressed load would result. What are the effects of seating the bullet deeper into the case? Thank you very much.
Tom
