From experience in hunting with the. 32 magnum and. 327 federal magnum they are both very underrated! That is from someone who usually uses .357 and .44 magnums. Very dependable and controllable using either. 32 caliber ! Great guns for utility and easy carry !

I am one of those guys who chose .32 h&r magnum over .38 special and .380 acp. I liked the cartridge so much I picked up the Taurus 327, a pair of charter arms professionals, helped a friend pick up a professional, found a gp100 lipsey exclusive in .327, and am now hunting for a Henry in .327. In my opinion the .32 h&r is perfect for the lighter snubbie/pocket revolvers and the .327 shines in the heavier sp101 and gp100 style heavier revolvers.

@@AmmoMart Thanks for taking the time to cover the round. For people looking at calibers below 9mm for personal defense the .32 h&r seems to be the perfect choice. It is more reliable than .22 lr, generally has a lighter double action trigger than .22 mag, has less recoil/snappiness than 380 acp and .38 special, and unlike .32 s&w long is actually potent enough to function with modern defensive bullet designs. How this cartridge hasn't caught on as the pocket carry for snubbie revolvers is beyond me, but it needs more attention from high quality content makers such as yourself. Thanks for putting out such excellent video's on it.

I stumbled upon a Smith & Wesson 431 for sale in a local pawn shop and picked it up for a pittance because they thought it was unsellable due to the caliber. For me, the advantage of a J-frame in .32 H&R magnum over .38 special is the follow up shots. If you follow the conclusion of Greg Ellifritz, from his study of multiple self-defense shooting incidents, the caliber doesn't matter so much as shooting the attacker twice. People seem to shake off getting shot once, even with a powerful cartridge, but getting shot twice makes them realize that they need to stop. Because a J-frame will buck in the hand so much, it is slower to get off the second shot than with .32 H&R magnum, which is very fast and easy to shoot.

I'd love to get an LCRx in 327 with the 3in barrel, but wearing the smaller grip from the snub LCR. I feel like that'd make a fantastic CCW. Esp when firing 32H&R. I would love to add the entire 32 family to the list of cartridges that I reload for. Pair any little revolver in 327 with Henry's lever gun and they 32's could cover a lot of bases. Heck, even paired with a 12ga sub cal adapter in 327. That way you could keep the versatility of the shotgun on hunting/camping trips too. Great video, always enjoy the content. Thanks for sharing 👍

Charter Arms off duty in 32 HR mag is a great choice. Weighs less than a 642 S&W and 6 round capacity. DA only but it smooths out nicely with use. The 32 HR mag also may use the 32 S&W Long and even 32acp. 32 S&W Long is a real treat with next to no recoil and ballistics roughly equivalent to 38 special round nose. Great choice for the snub revolver package IMO. Great video.

I've got the SP101 in the nightstand also. I got the SP101 right after they came out with 327 since it was the only one at that time. Then I got the Taurus Titanium, then the S&W Air Weight, then another Taurus which failed, just recently another Taurus Ultra Lite, and this week an S&W Air Lite Ti (titanium cylinder) the lightest of all these H&R Magnums. With an IDPA target I was doing a nice group of head shots at 15yds with the Air Weight and the Taurus Titanium. I have always felt this is a reliable round for self defense and these are well built firearms to use. The one Taurus failed when I let someone else shoot it on another bay so I don't really know what happened to it but it was locked up and would no longer cycle although I could open and close the cylinder. Traded it back in to the seller on an Erma M-1 carbine in 22lr, fun gun.😅 Online auctions still have some Taurus and S&W but you are likely to pay over $1000.00 for the S&W, trust me. Am looking now at a Henry in 327.

A 3 inch SP101 in 32 H&R with handloads is my go to gun. Plenty of bullets are available to handloaders at reasonable prices. You can hot rod this loading a bit compared to what an H&R would safely handle. A pound of Red Dot or W231 goes a long way, and doesn't make big fireballs.

I have heard of .32 H&R loaded as hot as .327 FED Mag for use in revolvers chambered for .327 Fed Mag. This could be handy if .327 Fed Mag brass becomes difficult to find - but I have no idea if .32 H&R brass is strong enough to take the strain safely - 45k psi is awfully high pressure though, I would not be comfortable doing it myself.

I guess because I watched a random KZitem pick on .32 revolvers, KZitem has given me a few more. Because I commented on one or two of those, I've seen more. I picked up a Charter Arms Undercoverette in .32 H&R Magnum a few weeks ago, and have been quite pleased with the gun. Holsters have been another issue, however. Yes, it fits well in a holster made for a J-frame S&W, but the problems I've had are that the first holster tends to crush when it's in my waistband and the pistol is out, making reholstering a chore, or the belt clip didn't keep the holster attached to my belt (and thus hidden--the whole shebang fell off my belt once; happily, nobody was around to notice). I have another holster on order that should address both issues and still make for a reasonably comfortable carry.

.32 H&R Magnum has significantly less recoil than .38 Special out of the same package. In a full-size service revolver, which I presume you are referring to, you're not getting enough recoil out of .38 Special to be bothered by it. But out of the lightweight snubnose revolvers in .38 Special that the majority of people carrying revolver are carrying, the difference between .38 and .32 H&R is EXTREMELY noticeable. My mother, who is a recoil sensitive shooter, loves shooting .32 H&R and .32 S&W Long out of her J-Frame a lot more than she did shooting .38 out of her previous J-Frame.

I think the likelihood of any malfunction is much less in a revolver, damn near zero with a well-known brand that is properly cleaned and maintained. However, the very best semiautos will malfunction when mag dumping and using defensive ammo. "tap and rack" is universally known and practiced because it occurs regularly. Also, a light primer strike in a revolver can be fixed on the spot, just pull the trigger again. Having said all that, I think the more mild 327 loads are a great option over H&R magnums

I thought this about revolvers too until I had a primer back out under recoil into the firing pin hole and totally lock my gun up. Put it entirely out of commission as anything other than a bludgeon until I could get to a gunsmithing bench and completely break it down. This is something that absolutely can happen to a revolver especially in the magnum calibers. But it happens far less often than semi-auto jams. Its a balancing act of prosVcons and a very personal decision, but it sure factored into mine when choosing to carry a P365.

I don't understand why someone would get a .32 H&R Magnum when one could get a .327 Federal Magnum and shoot both rounds. Because neither round is particularly popular, availability might be difficult sometimes. Getting the revolver that can fire both means being able to fire whatever ammunition is available. Granted, I'd love to have two firearms for these calibers, but few of us have an unlimited budget. If I were trying to market .32 H&R Magnum, I'd try to persuade some company to make a revolver that would be somewhere between J-frame and K-frame and would have a seven-round cylinder. I would want a four-inch barrel for the extra sight radius and extra velocity, but a three-inch barrel would be better for concealed carry. As someone said, pairing this revolver with a lever-action rifle would produce a fun combination.

An excellent question and the answer is you do not need to worry. Even if the projectile is hollow base, it will conform to the size of the cylinder wall diameter for a instant and then pinch down to the bore diameter once it enters.

I'd imagine so. That's about the ideal use case for it, in my opinion. Backup guns in ankle holsters are one of the few areas where many people consider snub-nosed revolvers competitive, if not outright superior to similarly-sized autoloaders. The Undercoverette offers competitive size, weight, and capacity to the .38 Specials more commonly used in such guns, and also gives you the option of using of .32 S&W Long wadcutters which are incredibly gentle in terms of report and recoil, although they won't be as effective as expanding magnum rounds. If the Undercoverette feels right to you, I'd say go for it.

Do keep in mind, your priorities are different than those of the police. They’re actively looking for bad guys and are determined to apprehend them or kill them with no retreat. Bad guys know the difference, that if they turn and flee you are obligated to stop shooting. You’re trying to avoid bad guys. Unless you own an all-cash pot business or something else that makes you a high-value target, as soon as you show you’re not a soft target, in most cases they’ll be looking for a way out.
