.32-40 ammo

Bought a Winchester '94 from 1903 today. Need some 32-40 ammo for it. Where might one find some?? help appreciated...

You can make it out of 30/30, 32 Special, 375 Win or 38/55 Win brass. Handloading will be about your only real option for this ctg. unless you want to pay through the nose for it.

Same here. I'd probably swap a cherry 30-30 for it, then you could find ammunition most anywhere.

A little light reading.

You want to pay $35 bucks for 20 rounds of 32-40Win be my guest(and they're out of stock by the way) but you can easily make up and handload your own using common 30/30 and the 170gr flat point for the 32 Win Special(or a cast bullet with a gas check) and save a lot of money. Just saying.

Thanks for all the info guys. I found some boxes of the John Wayne stuf, but who could afford it, much less shoot any of it? I found another guy who said he will load me some to shoot. I will keep in touch with Old West Scroungers to find some old stuff to put up with the gun
