I have been using WC820PD in my 32 Ruger SSM and wondered how much others have used and what speeds your getting with 120gr LFNGC? I have worked up to 9.1 and stopped just cuz It likes that load. How much farther has anyone SAEFELY gone?
Thanks

Although I haven't specifically used the 120g LFNGC in the .32 H&R cartridge, I have used the 115g FNGC extensively.
My data shows that WC820 is somewhere between W296/H110 and Li'l Gun in burning rate in this class cartridge. *
Thus being said, I have found that the load listed below is near max with the 115g FNPB bullet.
BTB .313"-115g FNGC/10.1g WC820/WSPP/Starline Brass/1246 fps
In looking at my data, I would suspect (without actually testing your bullets), that your 9.5g WC820 with the 120g LFNGC bullet is also very near the top end of the prudent pressure envelope as well. *If it aint broke, don't fix it! *Sounds like a nice load, and if you need more power, go to a larger cartridge, and enjoy the .32 H&R for the sheer shooting pleasure it offers!
God Bless,
Marshall
