It would seem to be comparable to .38/.357 dies. FWIW, I found that you can use .32ACP dies to load just about any straight walled .32 ammo. You may have to adjust the bell and seating plugs lower to get the desired effects on the cases with the .32 S&W Long dies.

Most .32 Auto dies can be adjusted for anything with the same basic .338"~ case diameter - from .32 ACP to .32 H&R Magnum - but some may not crimp the shorter .32 S&W. Of course we can usually remove some steel from the bottom of a too-long seat/crimp die with no harm done if we put a nice radius or chamfer on the hole to assure smooth entry.
