I bought my dad a few boxes of new .32 rimfire made in South America a few years ago, but have not seen any since. When he finally lets me have one of the rifles I will probably try something like this:

If the actions were stronger I would love to do a .327 mag conversion, but not with Granddad's and Great Granddad's rifles.

You can find it, but I will cheaper to have the gun relined to a 22 or 17 than to buy one box of 32RF.

Ahlmans in MN does relining but I don't know about converting a 32 to 22.


for every stereotype there's a prototype don't be the prototype
