Are 32 caliber bullets centerfire or rimfire?
Let's use the correct terms- BULLETS are the part of a CARTRIDGE that come out of the barrel. .32 Cartridges are now centerfire, but many years ago were rimfire. .32 rimfire guns have not been made in about the past 100 years, and are considered obsolete.

where to find ammo for H and A eureka No2 revolver?
Hopkins & Allen has been out of business since 1916. Many of their revolvers were in .32 RIMFIRE Short. This is an obsolete cartridge- once every 10-20 years a manufacturer may produce a limited run of ammo. A few were made in caliber .32 S&W centerfire. Would suggest you have the gun examined by a smith to determine which cartridge, and the safety of the gun (It IS probably over 100 years old). 32 S&W centerfire is a common cartridge- .32 Rimfire is very scarce, and not likely to be found- Sorry.

What is the smallest caliber centerfire handgun?
The smallest, best known centerfire handgun round is the .25 caliber (or 6.35mm). The practicality of the .25cal is questionable: you have all of the costs of a centerfire round, with not much more energy than a .22LR rimfire. In fact, nowadays, you are much more likely to find .22LR pistols than a .25cal. One step up from the .25cal is the .32 caliber. This is just about as out-dated as the .25cal, but there were some very popular weapons in .32 caliber, the Walther PPK (James Bond's weapon of choice) is said to be a .32cal (not a .380ACP). There are also pistols made to shoot rifle (long gun) rounds. These tend to be smaller caliber than a .25 cal, but are fairly modern (like a pistol designed to fire .17cal HMR).
