Ross, thank you very much for sharing your experience with me.I thought that this was a reasonable procedure since the two cases are so close in dimensions to each other,but I have never heard or read where this had been done by anybody.My main load for both of these cartridges is 10.0 gr of Unique with lead bullets.This load gives about 1500 fps in both sizes with 170-180 gr bullets.I use this for plinking and informal target shooting,but have hunted jackrabbits with it also where it has worked out very well.I have two 32 rifles,both mod 94 Winchesters; one is 1904 vintage and the newer one is from 1983.Even though the 32 has a reputation of poor accuracy I honestly put 5 shots touching each other at 100 yds with the sixth shot about one inch from the others.I have never repeated this with any gun,scoped or not,and doubt that I ever will;but for a breif minute there I thought that I was really some pumpkins.Ha! (this was done with the older rifle) This gun was given to me by a very good rancher friend in New Mexico who kept the gun to shoot at coyotes with.He gave it to me after I pestered him for about ten years to sell it to me.He said he never could hit anything with it and was going to buy a 30-06.To me this rifle is a treasure and I wouldn't part with it for any price.Thanks once again for your reply.
