There are dozens of brands of .32 S&W cartridges, but I would strongly suggest that you have your revolver examined by a gunsmith that has knowledge of older revolvers before shooting ANYTHING in it. Early .32 revolvers (including some of the Forehand & Wadsworth guns) were made for BLACK POWDER cartridges- and while the .32 S&W is not a powerhouse of a cartridge, some of the older revolvers were not meant to use modern ammunition which is loaded with smokeless powder, and has much higher pressures.
