Is .32 Winchester Special not being made any more? I know it was never the most popular round...
Many sites on GunBot.com and AmmoSeek.com say they have some in stock, but when I click the links, the sites say that it's either backorder-able or "will not be available in the future."
I just got my granddad's 1941 Winchester 94 a week ago. I've been going over it, oiling it, and working the action. I'm anxious to take it to the range, since it's been 38 years since I last fired it. I want my elderly dad to go with me and shoot it a little, too, before it's too late.
The rifle's been in the possession of my uncle for a long time, and he hasn't used it for hunting since the late 70s or early 80s. He gave me a box and a half of SuperX and Remington ammo he bought back then, but I'd rather hang on to those antiques instead of firing them off.
My problem is that I can't seem to find any new .32 Winchester Special ammo for it. I can't realistically justify the cost of getting reloading gear and learning how to do it, since I will shoot such a small volume of ammo.
Do I have to wait for hunting season for .32 WS to show up again, or am I just SOL?
