"Doesn't make sense". If that were the case we wouldn't have many of the calibers available we have today. I bought a 32 H&R Magnum mainly because most of the 327 Feds I could find were "sold out". If I had to only have calibers that "made sense" I'd be down to 3, maybe four different calibers. Even the 32 Long and 32 H&R Mag, ammo is "sold out" in the dozen or so vendors I've tried. Not a lot of bullets available for reloading and Starline is the only place I've found 32 H&R brass. Dead? I don't think so, just "sold out" whereever I look...
