Had planned on usin' my new .45LC Marlin 1894 but a week ago today I had a laminectomy disectomy at C5-C6 n can't take any recoil so my Browning Mod.53 had to step up ta the plate....did a remarkable job too...Lyman #3118 cast of 1/2WW's 1/2Lead n 2%Tin air cooled lubed with FWFL from the MOAB... penetrated bout 10" of deer including the spine n exited....shot was 121 steps slightly angling away...I held a bit high fer the distance n almost was too high... doe dropped on the spot

No way! Everybody knows the 32WCF is a sissy cartridge only suitable for mice and tin cans. This is obviously a complete fabrication. Lies, I tell you, lies! An animal that size at that range needs at least a 325WSSM stainless stalker Weatheroni cryogenicly treated 250 grain depleted uranium Z bullet at a minumum of 4239 fps topped by a Loopypolled 8x32 Mil-Dot lightseeking illuminated laser scope. Obviously a set of ProStaff Safari Stick tripod front end supports should be welded to the pillar bedded magnesium braced camo sniper stock. These rash claims of long range kills with under powered "gallery" cartridges are the bain of human existance and are the main contributor to global warming, thinning hair and fat women in spandex.

the 115 Soupcan out of a 30-30 or 30 Herrett at about 2K fps is too mild but 3118 (dang close as I remember pictures) appears to be a real killer outa a 32-20.
