The 32 S&W Long and the 32H&R Mag are perfect self defense revolver calibers. Plenty of penetration and easy to shoot very low muzzle blast easy for follow up shots. There are hotter rounds but an aggressor would be just as dead. I would rather Use the 32 S&W Long. Think about if you used a hotter round and it passed through their body and ended up killing someone behind them.

When I hand loaded XTP .32's in .32 Long, H&R and Federal Mag, it was similar to what you might see when loading .38, .38+P and .357 Mag with standard non magnum powder. The .32 Long was so-so, the .327 wasn't all that powerful with more recoil, but the .32 H&R slung an 85 gr at 1,000 FPS from the LCR. Great balance of power to recoil.

Sam, did you note your 25 yard group with the 38 wad cutter? Smallest group with the best placement far over every other combination tested. Depending on the goal the 38 wad cutters also produced a good wound path with optimum penetration for self defense. Don't you usually count quarter inch mdf as 3" of gel? Doesn't the put the wad cutters at ~ 18 inches? With a complete energy dump inside that range? 1) Shot placement 2) Shot Placement 3) SHOT PLACEMENT 4) "Ideal" penetration 5) Last thing is wound channel, but it was still above average in that company due to the full caliber meplat. I'd prefer the 32 for plinking and small game though. Here is an interesting test. The "get off me" ballistics test. Press the muzzle into the target and slow-mo the combined effect of the projectile + gas. I bet the magnums open some eyes as backup/holdout choices. These tests are a valuable resource to the shooting community.

Bro. Would you be up for testing some HSM and Black Hills cowboy loads in 38 and 44?

Very well done Sam. Love the hardcast vids. 357, 10mm, 45acp, 45 colt, 44mag ?

Great test! What is your opinion on the 30-super carry?

Thanks. I haven't had the opportunity to try it yet. But in theory it's a good idea. Adding velocity by removing bullet material/weight, is the best way to make reliable expansion better.

Interesting vid. I tried the BB +P in my new Arkansas PPK/S & got nothing but malfunctions! With all 5 magazines! It couldn’t put two shots together. I’ve had complete success with .380 hardball from 6 or 8 American & Europium manufacturers. Anyone out there have success with the B.B. +P .380 hard cast load? If so what gun?

You can fire plus P out of LCPs they just recommend not to in their instructions. Probably isn’t built strong enough to last through thousands of plus p rounds thus the non rating. 🤷♂️👌

Yeah they say that, and of course they would as they need to. A +P could mean a lot of things. That being said I trust Buffalo Bore, they know what they are doing and often say the details no one says. Like how they test all their ammo in ordinary guns and it's safe etc.

Interesting. I’d save that hot 180gr. 357 for a bigger gun, out in the woods. Yet another video to convince me that the mouse guns (including 380) are about as well of with any hard bullet that functions reliably as they would be spending $$ on expanding bullets that don’t.

@@GunSam That is a shame. I have one and I have some real concerns even though there hasn't been a problem yet but I've only shot about 200 rounds through it so far. When I went to the local gun shop to get a holster the owner said you bought a Taurus as if he was surprised that I would do that. I told him I've heard they've improved.. Oh well.
