I have been working with the 32 Special some and as I compared the 30-30 and the 32 Special I have decided that whatever small advantage the 32 offers in accuracy potential is more than offset by the 30-30's versitality. The 32 special 35-55, 35 remington and the other lever gun calibers don't hold a candle to the 30-30 for all around use. I have 9 mold suitable for use in the 30-30 ranging from 93 grains to 180 grains and have used the gun for everything from mice to moose. I have been contemplating taking my next buffalo with the 30-30 just to see how it will do. Loads for the 30-30 range from a 93 at 750 fps to a 180 at 2000fps. In contrast the 32 Special is 160 to 170 bullets from 1400 to 2100fps. If there were more bullets made for the 32 would it be as good with all the different weights?
