Finding 32 Special's when the 30-30's are gone could be a good thing. NOTE: I do have a couple 32 Special's and I do like them better than 30-30's, especially with boolits. I like the term redundancy, 300 Savage, 308, '06, 300 Mag all use 30 cal bullets, just a few yards difference in range from one to the next. 308 cases work for 243, 358 and 300 Savage. Bolt action 06's are tiresome, yeah they work but I have little interest in them, ah, but a Savage 99 in 358, that is interesting, like a Marlin .32 Special, also interesting, TO ME.
