I'm trying to get a line on 32-20 WCF Ammo for a neighbor who I am very good friends with.  We have a range opening up in Eatontown pretty soon and I thought a box of ammo would be a nice gift and encourage him to go to the range when it opens.  The only problem is this stuff is as rare as 22lr was last year. 

 

Are there any shops around that carry this antiquated ammo?  I've tried ammoseek and wikiarms and the ammo is not even listed there.  The few websites that have it listed seem to be eternally OOS.

At the risk of using a double negative, Midway doesn't say that it's not in stock...

There were also a couple listings on Gun Broker.

 

Good luck.

Bob,

 

I had come across that on Midway before but it is listed as rifle ammo.  Honestly, I know very little about this old fashioned ammo so I passed it up because it will be used in a handgun.  Back in the old days if ammo said 32-20 it was black powder and the powder charge would be standardized.  I am apprehensive in ordering it because it may have a greater powder charge for use in rifles.

 

If you or anyone else can shed some light on this I'd sure appreciate it.

I think that the liability involved would be too great. There are a lot of old .32-20 arms out there. I had the same quandary with .44-40, but I wasn't too worried since it was a modern firearm.

 

E-mail Winchester and ask.

 

Adios,
