A much more pedestrian use...

is for 8mm Mauser. Commercial loaders use the .32 Spl bullet to keep pressures down just in case one of those dreaded ".318 bores" shows up. They weren't actually .318 but I digress. I have used cast .32 Spl bullets for my early Mausers with success.

Keeping on topic, I sure wouldn't shy away from the .32 Rem. I already load for a Model 14 in .30 Rem so, why not?
