32-20

[Larryjk]

You fellows have mainly been talking shooting 32-20 in rifles. Try them in a revolver. One of my friends came back from visiting a cowboy museum and said there were more 32-20s in Colt SA revolvers than .45 Colt. I told him most cowboys didn't spend much time shooting each other and carried a 32-20 because their rifle (model 73 or 92) could shoot the same ammo and it was a lot lighter per box and didn't take up as much room in the saddle bags. It was very effective in shooting small game and an occasional deer or crippled cow or horse. It is just a very useful caliber.
