you should not use 32 Winchester special ammo in a 32-40 rifle! these are two complete different cartridges and you may injure yourself,and blow up a otherwise fine old marlin rifle.one of the major manufactures still load 32-40 ammo from time to time.check with Winchester,Remington or federal.There is also some small company,s that make hard to find ammo which the 32-40 is becoming,so look to the internet for your ammo.
