love shooting mine...i like the way the cylinder moves...freaks people out at the range when they don't know what they are.

The Model1895 Nagant revolver will shoot any of the following ammo safely and without blowing a ton of anything out of the gap between the cylinder and barrel: 7.62X38R(Nagant), .32 S&W Longs and .32 H&R Magnums. I regularly shoot all 3 of those calibers from both of my Nagants, there is a more pronounced smoke screen from the cylinder/barrel gap with anything but the correct 7.62 Nagant ammo

I do have a question about using the .32 H&R in nagants. I would like to use it in mine, but due to its much higher pressure I have been relutant to try it. I have no idea what pressure the nagant were designed to handle and I also do not know what pressures are developed by the .32 H&R Magnum. The fact that nothing bad has happened is not definative proof that each and every nagant will survived such usage.
You might try wrapping your rounds in thin paper if case bulging is a problem.

I shoot .32 S&W Shorts out of mine without having any problems. They are pretty accurate too (I shot a computer monitor with it from 100 yards and it only took 5 tries

). After shooting the shorts you will have to take a wire brush to the cylinder though. The build up from where the bullet separates from the casing gets a bit thick and will cause the longer bullet casings to get stuck.

can you fire the .327 fed mag or is it too long?

PLEASE NOTE: YOU CAN ALSO PURCHASE DROP-IN CONVERSION CYLINDERS FOR THE OTHER .32 CALIBER CARTRIDGES FOR THE NAGANT REVOLVER! TRY LOOKING ONLINE AT SITES LIKE J&G SALES, ETC., IF YOU WANT THE ABILITY TO RELOAD YOUR BRASS FROM THE .32 S&W LONG AND .32 H&R MAGNUMS!

Sorry for the caps...my caps lock was on too long, and I didn't feel like retyping everythin... :embarrassed2: :P :

...wasn't trying to shout at everyone...just figured I should at least point that bit of information out...

Thanks!

I reload 32-20 shells with a 74 gr cast bullet for a 32acp. I keep it a fairly light charge of Unique and it seems to be a very nice round for the Nagant. I takes a combo of .30 carbine and 32acp dies to load it but once I figured which to use and when it's a piece of cake.

When I shoot my Nagant revolver, I prefer to use S&W Longs.

I've had a few ban occurrences with H&R Mags and blow back. Its nothing that the standard pair of shooting glasses cant handle but it still a problem that i've only encountered with the mags.

When it comes down to .32 S&W longs vs HotShots 38r's, I still prefer the Longs. The hotshots are nice for being the proper round but I can reload the .32 with my existing equipment.
