32 S W ammo question

[Riven]

I got this ammo from an estate sale and was wondering if it all would be black powder or would the Remington and Winchester be nitro?

Not an expert but I'm nearly sure it's all smokeless. The Remington and Winchester definitely is modern production.

 

[Snider shooter]

All smokeless powder.

Smokeless lol

All smokeless, I own all that you see. The vintage 50's Dominion has quite a bit of punch for 32 SW.

Thanks for the advice everyone!
It's unfortunate as I was going to gift it to a buddy who has a top break revolver and as far as I know is for BP only.
I don't know the make of the gun but as far as I can find all break open revolvers are for BP only.

My question would be, where is the gun or guns that the ammo was intended for?
Anyone who has that much .32 lying around probably has/had a gun to fire it in.

 

[Riven]

I'm sure the owner had a gun for it.
Unfortunately I don't have a prohibited license and no guns were offered at the estate sale anyway.

Could the projectiles be pulled and reloaded with black power? I have no experience with lead projectiles.
My buddy loads but I'm trying to make this a surprise so I can't ask him.

Going to see if I can trade with Epps for some BP ammo

The .32 is so small replacing the powder would be a huge, frustrating chore. You made the right call trying something else.

 

[Riven]

Took everything to Epps today and was happy to almost double what I payed at auction for all the ammo.

Was also able to get one box of black powder rounds to gift to my buddy.

That's good to hear, I have fired some 32 s&w out of a nagant revolver, the cases would bulge a little, might not have been the safest thing to do but nagant ammo was hard to find 15 years ago
