As it turns out I now have longrifles in both .32 and .36,  :happy .

I killed them with my Crockett and then with my SMR .36.  The Tn longrifle is still in the dialing in stage.

I cut my hunting teeth on squirrels and still feel the magic of those days.  I still do it even now, but just not as often.

Ron,
      I have a .32, .36 and a .40. My .32 is my squirrel gun almost exclusively. My .36 for
squirrel and about anything up to the size of fox. My .40 is pretty much a range gun because it has great paper shooting ability to 50 yards. I also have a two .45s that are about the
same as the .40 as far as being accurate that I use for deer hunting with much success.
They are all percussion,my ignition of choice although I do own two F/Ls both .50cal.M2C

I have flintlocks in .45 and .50 and percussion in .45, .50 and .54.
I never thought much about the .32, so I checked on ball availability for the .32 and I am now very interested.
After all, that little .32 is so......cute! :)

rfd, I saw a Pedersoli carbine version of that, but with the short barrel, it just doesn't look like a longrifle should. Of course it doesn't, it is a short rifle. :)

I have my eyes open for a used longrifle in .32 to pop up on one of the sites. After selling a dual-sport motorcycle, I have some expendable funds for the important things in life, like muzzleloaders.
