A sub- caliber adapter to take .32 S&W Long revolver cartridges is readily available, very quiet in the long rifle barrel, and more effective than .22 LR on the larger varmints. Accuracy is "OK", not for head shots on rabbits, but sure kills on body shots to 50 yards or so. If limited to one inexpensive, "agricultural" utility rifle, the revolver carrtridge adapter gives the lower noise small game option and conserves your rifle rounds. I have one of these for my. 303 also and am well satisfied. Of course, a low- powered handload, with cast lead bullet and a pinch of pistol or shotgun powder does the same thing, more accurately and cheaply. But if reloading is beyond your means, the cartridge adapters make sense for simplicity and utility.

Got it all.

I reload and cast bullets for everything I shoot.

Also have the .32 adapter for my 7.62x54, 30-06 and .303 rifles. I even reload the .32 for the adapters.

Normally I would have used the .357 single shot for this but it was a bit early on the Sunday morn and I have one .22 rifle that is very, very quiet and much more accurate than the adapters have proven to be.
