History This cartridge is based on the .30-30 Winchester cartridge of 1895, but differs from the .30-30 in bullet diameter. More significantly, Winchester decreased the rate of rifling twist in their Model 94 rifle, from 1:12 when chambered for the .30-30 to 1:16 when chambered for the .32 Winchest...

Waitin' 'cause I generally buy guns for self defense these days... already have a Sav99/300Sav, Marlin 30-30, and a 30-06 bolt gun... tough to justify a plinker. 32-20 would be like a .22 that's worth reloading. :lol: It's way more then a 22......shown left to right 22LR. 22MAG. 32-20 http://i123.p...

I have for years been buying one lever gun or another and getting one or two elements of the '73 in each. It was time to get it all in the 1873 Special Sporting Rifle. $1,200 seemed OK for the best looking rifle in the safe. Owen Hey that's my rifle...lol! Mine is just the little old 32-20 and I lo...

Hey, Tom, did you fire one and very carefully extract it and examine it before it got ejected to see if it comes out of the chamber like that? This must be happening after ejection somehow.

After you load it you have to point it toward the ground and slide the spring loaded tab that's between the barrel and the mag tube toward the end of the barrel, that locks the BB's in.
