Well, it has been a while, so I'm not sure what my thoughts were at that time, but I know I wanted to try out the rifle in the worst way. I was using a lead bullet, but since I had never seen a Lyman handbook before, I may have just started at the beginning and when I came to ".32-40" I started looking for a load for some powder I had on hand. It happened to be for jacketed bullets, but I was probably thinking that the recipe wouldn't be much different for lead. Pretty sad, I know. I told you it was very embarassing for me to talk about it. Maybe it will save someone else from doing the same thing.
