OT: Another what if .32 cal question UPDATE
For a fun quiet cartridge would you get a 32/20 or 32HR ? Need to order barrel for T/C Contender. Havent bought one in 4 months. Already have the 22's and 25's covered, also the 35's and up are taken care of. Only need a few mid bores to complete my very need
Tho still a few more I want

30/30 Winchester: Not accurate enough fer varmints, barely adequate for small deer; BUT In a 10" to 14" barrelled pistol; is good for moose/elk to 200 yards; ground squirrels to 300 metres

I could be wrong as I've never had a .32, but I've always understood that they were painfully loud.

Sheesh that's a tuff one, but for the quiet part the h&r about has to take the lead as you can load it way down with stuff like trailboss and bullseye, and you can also shoot 32 shorts thru it..
Re: OT: Another what if .32 cal question
I guess that I would go for a 327H&R a little longer if they make it yet. In the TC you could load hot or lite. The 32H&R may soon be a run every year or so of brass. No current guns manufactured for the round.
The 32-20 in the TC last I read was .308 not .314 for a wider selection of bullets for silhouette shooting. Not a bad thing just throwing it out there for information. If I had another 308 and
and no H&Rs I would get it so I could have more uses for the molds. Yep I cast so that is a consideration for me. Well maybe not I had a TC and it seems like the barrels cross breed in the safe.
Maybe you should get all three.

Re: OT: Another what if .32 cal question UPDATE
The PROBLEM solved itself, was going thru the Owatonna Cabela's and in the 2nd rack i went thru was a childhood rifle I shoulda never sold, an H+R Topper model 158 in 30/30 for $149. Dont have to buy new dies, brass, molds and bullets. Jus hafta make up a couple of Lee 113gr and 200 gr loads that shoot to same point of impact
