Hi:

I've used these.

The problem with them is the fact that the lube groove extends down into the powder area of the cartridge. Upon firing, much, if not all, of the lube is consumed with the powder charge, rather than "smoking" the barrel to avoid leading.

OAL of 29mm feed perfectly for me. Accuracy was only ok by my standards, though.

If memory serves, these were designed for a .32-20 rifle originally.
