Check this thing out.
Sort of useless in the Model 8 or 81, unless you wanted a bolt action with really low recoil.

They do have a purpose. Had a set of each for my 99`s. The 22HP to 22 LR was most often used. Have one for 25 acp in the 250-3000 . Can take care of small game with reduced noise when needed. The 32acp for 32 Rem would serve same purpose being utilized as a single shot in an 8 or 81.

I think there is an error in the description. I can't recall where I read about chamber inserts but the 32 ACP is for 30-06. 32 ACP bullet is.309-.311 and would nor fit too well in a 32 Remington. It may have been a Rifle or Handloader magazine article that I'm trying to remember. When I get home in a couple of weeks I'll try to find it. My only experience with sub caliber devices is a 12 gauge chamber insert to shoot 357 Magnum cartridges. Wait, I just remembered I shot 7.62 NATO ammo in a 90 mm recoil less rifle when I was in the U.S.Army.
