Anybody know anything about loading for the 32 long colt

I was presented with a Marlin 92 in both 32 rimfire and 32 long colt. Anybody have any experience with loading for the long Colt? Thanks

Re: prayers and suggestions for guidance

You guys may not be doctors but your common sense is up to par. I am not a doctor but I am a nurse and the things that popped into my head were, medication side effect/interactions, dehydration(d/t diuretic), or UTI. No idea if we are right but all pretty easy to check. Well done guys.

Last pig I shot about three years ago was 150-160 pounds so not in the trophy class but I used my 444 with 300 grai handloads. Only move that pig made was straight down to the ground and the hole had about a sixteenth of an inch of bloodshot around it that’s all.

Also remember if you have been exposed and are in the incubation period, even if you “get the shot” you will probably get sick. I have heard a thousand times that I got the shot and got the flu three days later from it. Uhh no.
