Win 1892 32 WCF Back to Work

Post by Lanyard Stretcher »

After a number of years sitting in the lock up my 1910 Winchester 1892 SRC 32 WCF got some work in. After some load developement and a thorough cleaning she is back taking small game. I'm so impressed on how the 92 handles and shoots that I need to get a 44 WCF for deer :wink: .

Welcome to the forum.

That is a nice picture of a working Winchester 1892. Many of us favor the .32 wcf as well.

My goal was to have a load that was 1200 fps. I tried 7 different powders to go along with a Lazer Cast 115gr RNFP. From the hood of my truck I shot groups with each load at 50 yds. I had promising groups with Bullseye, Red Dot, Unique, and Green Dot. I settled on Universal Clays because it it gave as good accuracy as the others and it flows better and more consistant out of my powder measure.

4 gr Universal Clays

Thanks for the welcome :D

Welcome to the forum and you have a great carbine in my favorite round, 32wcf. I have some Clays Universal so I think I'll try a few loads and see what they will do in my 92.

32 WCF = 22 on steroids. :) No recoil and a good thump at impact!
