For the record I never said a tapered would not shoot good Frank they do indeed shoot very well. What I did say was based on my personal experience a cylindrical bullet has consistently shot better for me and may do so for others?

How are your rifles throated?

No four are alike. The 2ea. 32-40's are a Darr and a CPA.  
The cylindrical bullet I use for the 32-40 is 2 Thous. over groove, it's a FN Darr, no leading, no fins, no seating distortion and not at all difficult to seat. I built the 28-35, borrowed the reamer and don't have a copy of the prints. Unfortunately I do not have a cylindrical bullet for the 25 yet, rifle is a Mos, freebore between 50&70 Thous. and Leade is 1 degree.
I also have a 32-40 cylindrical spitzer, 6 dia. ogive, 216grs. for the CPA 32-40, it used to be my go to bullet and I shot it for several years. The off shots are more dramatic in the wind than the FN so its no longer used.
