Howdy y'all! I'm in the process of building a rifle barrel for my .410 that will be chambered for .32 H&R magnum. My reason for doing this is that I want a reloadable substitute for .22LR, by using .32 S&W Longs I reckon she'd make for a nice soft shooter with more punch than a .22. That and if this ammo/component shortage gets really terrible (as if it isn't horrific enough) I can just reload my own primers.
Today while I was grinding away at the barrel for this gun on my lath a thought popped into my head. I figured I could lengthen the chamber and use it sort of like a .32-20 with blackpowder loads. The very thought of that makes me all warm and fuzzy inside!
Does anyone know how much BP a .327 Federal case will hold? I'm considering lengthening the chambers and trying this out, it might make for a pretty fun little load with BP and cast boolits.
Thanks!
