Frame cracking issue with hot rounds? Where do they crack? I'll have to inspect. Thought I looked it over good. Hope I didn't miss itOld ones had a frame cracking issue, not sure when that stopped.
32 Silvertips were the thing when it came out, but I'd look into any quality JHP or just look for a hot FMJ round as it's only 32.
Far better than harsh language or the 1911 you left at home.
I've been doing some reading and some recommend fmj over hollows. Even for 380. I won't be carrying this gun. I have a Springfield I keep in my pocket. It's real small. Thought my girlfriend might want it but slide is really stiff for such a small gun
Yeah . . . . If I stab you in the chest with my Gerber MK1 it meets or exceeds the "FBI penetration depths" also.
"Hotter" . . . personally,I would pick my EDC or BUG ammo by bullet design rather than bullet speed. Granted . . . each will help the other. But #1 would be bullet design and performance history . . . as in XTP,Gold Dot,and others.
But - - -> carry that 32 in your pocket instead of just lint. --- SAWMAN
There's also one other thing to consider about .32acp/7.65 Browning,
the fact that some grain bullets work better than others in a particular gun...
I've got a pistol that anything over 65-grains causes FTE/stovepipes.
Doesn't matter if it's 7.65 Browning or .32acp, going heavy means headaches.
But the lighter grain offerings cycle quite nicely!
For those that didn't know, 7.65mm Browning & .32ACP are mostly interchangable.
Although there is the occasional .32acp that can't chamber 7.65 Browning...
European 7.65 Browning ammo tends to be slightly hotter than the American .32ACP loadings.
I have not checked specs for each, but I know that we have lawyers that will sue over anything. Do SAMMI spec specify a minimum velocity and pressure. I know they specify the maximums. I have never heard of anyone suing because there bullets bounced off of someone's skull due to being under loaded which has been reported at times with some of the older breakopen revovler loads. The .41 rimfire derringer load was also very weak.C.I.P loads are somewhat hotter in 9mm,7.62X51,and 5.56X45. Others most likely also. Some of the case deminsions are very slightly different,most,not enough to make a difference depending on what chamber your gun has.
I really do not know when the CIP standards came along but I am sure that they have not been used "forever". --- SAWMAN
