Love my Model 16-4 and want to start loading for it. What bullet do you recommend for the "long" and do any of you have a recipe using Titegroup or 231? Thanks for any suggestions and help.

95 gr cast LSWC ahead of 3.6 gr of W231 in .32 H&R Mag brass works great in my 4 5/8" barreled Bird's Head Single Six. Averaged 1120 fps in my gun. For .32 S&W Long drop to 2.8. Averages 910 fps in my 4" H&R model 732.

Berrys bullets sells a plated 83 grain wadcutter that shoots very well in my 32's
I use Accurate number two but I think both powders you mention are great too.
In lead I buy Missouri Bullets 100 SWC for both calibers.
I buy both online and both our very reasonably priced and both sell direct.

One of the most accurate .32 mag loads Ive ever tried in my M-16 was 11 gn H110 and hornadys 85 gn hp. At 25yds from a rest it was producing sub one inch groups. Velocity was just under 1300 fps out of a 6 inch Bbl.

I have several .32's:
S&W Model 631 (4" barrel)
S&W Model 16-4 (6" barrel)
Ruger SP 101 (4").

I shoot far more .32 S&W Longs than I do .32 H&R Magnums.

.32 S&W Long:
100 gr Keith cast SWC or RCBS 98 gr SWC ahead of 2.8 grs of 231 in .32 S&W Long cases (any standard SP primer).

90 gr Hornady HBWC ahead of 2.0 grs of Bullseye or equivalent (any standard SP primer).

.32 H&R Magnum case:
100 gr Keith cast bullet ahead of 10.0 grs of H110.

The target loaded .32 S&W Long does me just fine for any edible small game. In fact, it could be argued that the 631 is the ideal "Trail Gun". However, I may be found with any one of my .32's at any given time.
