Swaging First Attempt - How to load?

First topic message reminder :

Below is a pic of my first attempt at swaging a bullet. An 85 gr. Hornady 32 cal. XTP is sitting beside one of them for comparison. The OAL is .548" compared to the .492" of the Hornady. It doesn't show in the pic but the bullet has a slight hollow base. The problem now is what to do for a load. I can't find anything that matches the shape and size of this bullet. I intend to try this out in a Pardini HP chambered in 32 ACP.

Jon, Why the .325 crimp? Published table? Experiment? Visually when I crimp this tight, the bullet looks over crimped. It may not be, just saying it looks that way. But that could be the difference in .314 bullets.
