See More Information

Black Hills manufactures this versatile 32 H&R Magnum ammunition with self-defense in mind. Known for causing deep penetrating entry wounds and predictable wide expansion, the heavy jacketed hollow point (JHP) bullet has a copper sheath a large cavity exposed. The jacket helps the bullet keep its shape, and the cavity prompts the bullet to expand on contact.

These .32 H&R magnum cartridges fire from the muzzle at speedy 1100 fps, and the heaviness of the projectile steady the bullet causing a more even flight pattern. The superb accuracy of these rounds make them optimal in self-defense, and a great choice for target practice.

Each 32 H&R magnum cartridge has a Boxer-primed brass casing, factory fresh from the Black Hills facility in South Dakota. Black Hills also supplies ammunition to the US military, which means your self-defense ammo is of the same quality as the armed forces. Pick up your 50-round box today!

After firing five rounds of Black Hills 85 gr JHP from a Ruger LCR into synthetic ballistic gelatin from 10 feet away through four layers of fabric to simulate clothing, we then measured the expansion and penetration of the bullets for this .32 H&R Magnum load, which you can see in the chart below.

Q: I had used Federal 95gr Lead ammo before. It produced A LOT of smoke and heavy leading. (https://www.luckygunner.com/32-h-r-magnum-95-grain-lead-semi-wadcutter-federal-champion-20-rounds) Does this Black Hills ammo burn clean? Does it produce any noticeable amount of leading in the barrel? THanks.

Posted On: 3/30/2025 By: CactusJack

A: Hello Cactus Jack! Well sir, an SWC bullet like the ones you've been firing doesn't have a jacket. When white hot propellant gasses cook the base of an all-lead bullet, it can't help but release lead vapor. Now, this here ammo's loaded with JHP bullets, which have fully jacketed bases. When the heat of ignition cooks the base of a JHP, it *does not* release aerosolized lead. Will you noticeless lead fouling? Absolutely. No ammo eliminates fouling altogether, but I'm confident you'll notice leass fouling with JHP over SWC ammo.

Q: I have a 32 H&R Magnum. Would these work in it?

Posted On: 10/16/2024 By: Miguel

A: Yes sir.

Q: I have a Walter PPK. Will these fit the gun or do I need to stick with the .32 ACP? Thank you!

Posted On: 3/27/2020 By: Tower Snow

A: Great question, Tower! .32 H&R Magnum ammo will not work in your .32 ACP PPK, unfortunately. They're significantly different lengths, and have other differences as well!

Q: I have a .32 smith & Wesson revolver that belonged to my grandfather . Would these bullets fit it?

Posted On: 3/25/2020 By: Larry Penny

A: Good on you for checking first! There are a few different cartridges that start with ".32" – they are all different lengths, and they are not interchangeable with one another. This particular cartridge, the .32 H&R Magnum, was designed in 1982, so we're going to guess your grandfather's revolver is not compatible with it. While it is possible that your revolver is chambered for .32 S&W Short, we would bet it's actually chambered for .32 S&W Long. That was a police cartridge back in the day, so a lot of revolvers were made for it. Please check the markings on the frame and barrel, and if that doesn't give you answers you may want to consult an expert before ordering ammunition. We hope this helps!

Q: I am looking for shells for a 32 H&R revolver, not for an automatic. Are these for revolver or automatic?

Posted On: 4/6/2018 By: Joseph E Thompson

A: These are for the revolver. These are not the .32 ACP cartridge.
