This works for me in the .32 H&R - only I use 3.5 grains of 231 with a 95 grain SWC - haven’t chronographed it but should be somewhere around 800fps out of a revolver. Use it in my Ruger SS(s), T/C Contender, and S&W 16 with excellent accuracy and can shoot it all day with comfort and have never had a problem dispatching what the .32 was intended to dispatch (mostly small vermin, squirrels, turkeys but also used it a few times to dispatch wounded deer - wounded from hunting or hit by vehicles). Never really understood the need for speed in this one - but to each their own.

I have 327 Federals loaded up for when I want speed. Recoil is still negligible from the carbine, but those are some noisy suckers... really sharp crack on them. 86 grainers over BE-86 at a shade under 2000fps.
