I need help in locating 71 gr round nose bullets for reloading for my Colt 32 auto, found lots of brass but just no bullets. If you have a source PLEASE let me know so I can reload my empties

THANKS Larry

    Am I correct in thinking that this is about the hottest commercial load I can get for my S&W chamber for 32 SWL? (I have 32 SWL Winchester on order).

    Uh, 32 Long is not the same as 32 ACP. 32 Long is longer, and fully rimmed, as it's mean to shoot from revolvers. 32 ACP is semi-rimmed, and meant for self-loaders. Still, you can reload with many of the same projectiles.

    32 acp is semi-rimmed and works fine in my S&W 32SWL revolver.

    Hello I shoot 32S&W long in target pistols and there is a 32 H&R mag but what rifle from Winchester is chambered in 32 S&W long?

    I should have clarified that by saying Winchester AMMO on order.

    Interesting. .32ACP falls into the chambers of my revolver that shoots .32 Long and .32 HRMag.

    Aquila, Magtech, and PMC all make economical ammo in .32 Long.

    Is your revolver made for a tapered 32 case like the 32-20? If so, this could be the reason the short 32 acp falls in the wide base area, but the 32 long and H&R Mag are long enough to get to the narrower end of the cylinder.
