.32 Remington questions

Anybody load this? I know it's obsolete, but I have a chance at a sweet little Remmy pump chambered for the .32. It comes with 3 boxws of shells, so brass wouldn't be a problem for awhile. Good deer rifle? Any help is appreciated. Thanks

It's a .30-30 equivalent (or to be more precise, a .32 Win Special - but that's a distinction without a difference).

You might be able to find occasional runs of .30 Rem brass, and it's a simple neck-up job. I'd search eBay for dies, brass and/or ammo.

If the gun is a bargain, sure, why not? You'd be no worse off than the current owner!

Neat little rifle. I happen to have a 141 in 35 Rem and a M8 in 30 Rem. Fun gun to shoot...but it really throws those empties. Otherwise what Rocky said!

Brass is going to be the sticking point- hasn't been made for quite a few years.
If you run across 32 Remington or 30 Remington brass, grab all you can. As Rocky pointed out, necking up 30 Remington brass to make 32 is simple and easy.
Nice rifle, if you can find food for it.
