    Walkalong.. 32-20 question

    what brand of brass do you prefer? I'm loading the last of my Starline tonight, and I've smushed the mouths of half a dozen cases by having them stick to my fingers (case lube) and driving them into the rim of the die.. Then I got looking at it.. Now I know 32-20 isn't the heaviest brass...

    In a .444Marlin lever gun.. Crimped in the cannelure, OAL under SAAMI.. Do these guns have short throats? Or is the bullet too goofy in the "ogive" I had to physically cam the lever closed the last oh, 1/16" or so.. Pressure signs are negligible, but this thing HURTS (yeah, I know...
