The next obscure cartridge obsession

Today, knowing that I had some empty .32 Win Special brass that needed reloaded, I went online and ordered up some 170-grain softpoints for that caliber.

...which of course got my wheels turning. "What other cartridge would use those bullets?" I asked myself. "Well," my self answered back, "...how about .32 Remington?"

How about it indeed. Now I'm pondering whether .32 Rem should be the next obsolete round I get dies and brass for, or if it should be .303 Savage.

Because, you know. Undaunted by common sense.
