Warden Callaway Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 People are beating the bushes for 32WCF brass or ammo. I ran across this video of a guy making 32WCF brass from 7.62 Negant. Gives you something else to look for as I don't see 7.62 Negant available either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H. K. Uriah, SASS #74619 Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 That's funny. as I do the exact opposte. I take .32-20 brass and run it through Nagant dies to get perfectly usable brass for those weird Russian pistols. It's too "short" to do the chamber seal thing, but using wadcutter bullets, you can at least shoot your Nagant with very satisfactory results.

Three Foot Johnson Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 Me too - 7.62x38R and .25-20 from .32-20 cases. Even now, .32-20 isn't hard to find at all, it's the price point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grass Range Posted February 10, 2023 Share Posted February 10, 2023 32-20 shortage? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earl Brasse, SASS #3562 Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 Argh! First, I couldn't view the video, something with my computer. Next, what about the Nagant rim being much thinner than the 32-20 Win? Finally, anyone with excess Nagant brass, much better to make them into .310 Martini Cadet. (or trade them to me if you don't have a Cadet, lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(or trade them to me if you don't have a Cadet, lol) I have not had a problem turning .32-20 into Nagant rounds. I have used Remington and Starline brass. No need to thin any rims. I've also turned .32-20 into .32WSL without changing the extractor groove, and just running it through a resizing die. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
