    Given the chamber pressures, I don't think that would be a great idea. Going from .32S&W to .32H&R Mag, however, should be doable....

    This is what I was getting-at.

    But, the 32 H&R Mag will work in the .327 ?

    Why are the mfgrs still making 32 H&R chambered guns, then ?

    Kinda like making a 2-9/16” 16GA chamber shotgun today ?

    The same reason they are still making 45 Colt, 44 special, and 38 special chambered guns, I reckon.

    I'm willing to bet some gunsmiths have run reamers into chambers, though.

    I have a ~1955 Colt snubbie and the thought has crossed my mind. :)

    But there were a few 32-20 lever guns rechambered. Before the Henry came out, I was looking for one to have done myself.
