  1. 32-40 38-55/375 & Other Non Standard Caliber
    I have both a marlin 1893 chambered in 38-55 and a marlin 1894 chambered in 32-20. I am wondering if they are able to run modern ammo safely. I have saved all my casings from older ammunition that I have, but I know the least bit about reloading them. Any information would be greatly appreciated!

    I have 2 full boxes of commemorative "Duke" 32-40 ammo and one box that is half shot, but still have the casings. Wanted to know if something like this can be reloaded. I don't want to shoot the commemorative rounds but don't see a problem with shooting reloaded cases of the ones that are...
