Came across a small pile of 32 special that were gifted to me by a friend.
I have no use for 32 special rounds, especially ones that by his account belonged to his father ( who is in his 80's ) as a teen.
The shells are in fairly good condition, although some of them do exhibit a waxy green verdigris that flakes off with a fingernail scratching leaving gleaming brass underneath.
My question is this : Is it possible given the striking similarity of the 32 special to the .30-30 ( its parent cartridge) to break down the rounds, dispose of the powder primers and bullets, and then resize the brass for use in .30-30?
I guess the real question is : Is there a way to make the neck width go away
