Don't particularly care for the rather sharp grooved trigger but, just like playing the mandolin, your finger(s) eventually get over it.

Also picked-up this example of pure (cold war era) americana.....j.c. higgins 16 gauge.....

Neat .32!
Looking forward to a range report.

First thoughts on that 16 gam was that's going to kick!

Have fun!

Ditto on the range report, Ray. I have always admired the little .32s, but never worked with the capable .32 Long.

I tend to disagree -- all of my .32s (Long or H&R Mag) are superbly accurate!

You should get "minute of tennis ball" or even better at 10 paces.

Below is an image of some .32 bullet penetration tests I did over 11 years ago -- that middle load would work well for you.

Good luck!

I believe Ray was alluding to HIS limitations not the GUNS.
