    You can shoot 32acp in a revolver since it has a semi-rim and won't fall through the chambers. It's not real powerful and sometimes you get light strikes depending on the length of the firing pin. I have shot it in a Ruger Single 6 .32 Mag and a Ruger Single 7 327 Mag. I have also shot it in my Ruger SP101 327.

    Ohhhhh

    Not so fast.

    7.65 Browning has considerably more pressure.

    I have split a cylinder wall doing this.

    Learn from my mistake, not from your own.

    Thanks for pointing that out. I didn't realize it ran at greater pressure than the 32 S&W Short or Long. I never fired in anything less than a 32 H&R Magnum revolver and of course the 327 operates at twice the pressure of the 32 Mag. Even the lowly 25ACP runs at twice the pressure as the 32 Long.
