Those are really fun to shoot! (Unless you're trying to do it double-action.) Around $16 per 50 rounds is hard to beat.

I shot 500 rounds of factory so I could get brass. Then I settled on autocomp with a 71gr fmj for plinking and Lil Gun with a 100 gr xtp.
 
So you're using projectiles that seat above the rim? Like with a .32 die? Interesting, didn't think of that. Don't have my Nagant any more, or I'd be experimenting with that kind of thing. 100 gr xtp might get you into .32 H&R Magnum territory, if you can get away with loading it hot enough.

I seat them for a gas seal. They are definitely 32 mag territory with the sealed cylinder.

That sounds like the package my Dad bought in 1998. He gave it to me shortly before he passed.
I never got into the acp cylinder because I could buy the ppu for $15 a box.
