	I want to give a shout out to Rocky Mountain Cartridge,With special thanks to Kody, who wrote the program to make my cases. 32-20 was a new job for them as they never had a call for it. You did a perfect job. As some of you may know RMC has changed hands. The new owners, Tom, Cheri & Kody Outland, went out of there way to make me these special cases at no extra charge. They honored a gift certificate I won this summer at a BPCR match for 20 cases and would not except extra payment. I am very sure it's a tough business specialty when first starting out. Please give them a call if you need any special brass. Those of you shooting the CPA 32-20 or 32-20X.308 will be very happy with this case.

	Everlasting style cases can also be a great way to reduce excess internal volume in large old tapered BP cases for handier and safer use with modern high-intensity powder loads. I have had the previous owner make up several batches of such cases for me. Works great especially for some of the oddball BN Mauser style cases used in a few of the euro-rifles.

	Boho, Glad you used one of our supporters! I have a 32-20 Hepburn coming in and do you know the dimensions of the cartridge you had made up? I will do a chamber cast when I get it so I can compare with yours. It would be great if it works out to be the same and I could order the brass from RMC. Thanks-- Richard

	Richard, The cases are made to the standard dimensions of a 32-20 case. It chambered very easy.Like all cases they still need to be fired formed. At first the unfired case was too loose to even be held in the Wilson bushing used for trimming. Once fired it was fine but I was worried that it might not. The wall thickness at the neck is .015" and it's reamed straight back without a step so it's very thick in the rear.The case fire formed well and there is no blow back. The primer pockets are very tight. The standard case worked with a tapered bullet fired 100's of times. But when I switched to a cylindrical bullet the case life was only 5 shots! That was with 8.5 - 9.5 gns AA4100. I am shooting a 192grain 25/1 bullet in a 1/10 twist barrel .308 cal.

	Thanks for all the information. It will be about a week before I get the rifle and can do a chamber cast. I can contact RMC then to see if they would work. Also appreciate the load info. Richard
