Maybe I screwed up buying the marlin 1894cL in 32/20.From what I'm reading it looks pretty bleaker hopeless in ever getting brass. Oh you might wander across a little if you hit ev r ry gun show possible. Maybe I should cancel my deal which I don't like doing. Pretty depressing. All I would ever need would be 150 to go woth the 50 I'm getting tomorrow. But I can see my 50 being toast in a year or two then what.

There's a bit of 32-20 brass on Gunbroker.

Stay away from gun broker, between $1/$2 per piece of brass. They are the problem, Starline sells to them in bulk, around .25 cents ea. Let the slim balls sit on their brass.

In '17, I bought a 1894CL in .218Bee.
I had to pay $2.00 a piece for once-fired brass. Found two boxes of 50.
Two months later, Starline made a run of .32-20. I bought 200.
I had .25-20 dies and .218 dies, so I formed my own 'Bee's.

I really enjoy my 'Bee. It's quite accurate, and much handier than my Ruger.22Hornet.

I'll never do that again! Took me 5hrs to skin, and quarter them. Another 6hrs to bone, cut, grind, and wrap for the freezer.
Two head shots, and a heart shot.
