Very true. That's precisely why those factory loads are so anemic - they have to be safe in ANY gun chambered for that round (for obvious liability reasons) so they're loaded down to what the weakest gun in that caliber can safely stand.
Translation: poof! Assuming a good quality revolver (I was loading for a Ruger SP101 chambered for 32 H&R Mag) the dinky little 32 Long can be juiced up to 1,000 fps very easily, even with bullets in the 85-grain area. But such loads are NOT for old, break-top guns or any that show significant wear. Let your professional gunsmith be your guide.
