Hello A10
I feel as though the .32 Cartridge is Very capable to Hunt with if Loaded right. Many say that it is Mild or weak cartridge. When the Federal .327 Magnum Hit the scene it removed all doubt about the .32 Caliber being adequate to Hunt with as my Chronograph results showed the velocity of the Federal .327 surpassing that of the .357 magnum Cartridge velocities. In my mind the Federal .327 Cartridge is everything that the Previous .32 H&R Magnum cartridge should have been. I hope to take a deer next with it and would Like a Head shot in doing so @ 1630 F.P.S. using a Sierra 90 Grain weight Sport's Master Hollow Point Bullet I see no reason why the cartridge can not do the Job. Long Live the .32 caliber. Regards, Hammerdown

The letter on the 4" K-32 has arrived. It was, just as David Carroll stated, one of the ten 4" guns on special order to B.W. Folsom, Warren, OH. Here is the second page of the letter which answers many of the questions about the barrel configuration. Thanks Roy.

Congratulations. The gunshop guy seemed convinced it was rebarreled. Will you clue him in? Or, as they say, let ignorance be bliss?

aphelion, me thinks for the sake of the hunt in the future, I best be quiet.

SCORE!! That makes a great find move all the way up to the stratosphere. Did you buy a stack of Lottery Tickets that day as well or did you figure you had used up all of your luck and karma for the time? Congratulations on the gun and just as much on the letter. I don't guess you'll be boring the chambers out to 32 mag, huh?

Regards,
Froggie
