Left to right; unfired .22, fired .32, fired .32, unfired .32, unfired .22.

I don't believe there are reloading dies available for this round.

Of course there was a caveat. .32 Rimfire ammo (think .22 rimfire on steroids!) is rare as hen's teeth! It went obsolete around 1930 and out of production in the '60's (I think) with Navy arms having a special run in the 1990's.

The rifle is a bit indeterminate as to the model. It could be a 1915 or an 1894. Based on the D-link on the takedown bolt, I think it is an 1894.

Photos to follow.
Heh. My mom's favorite rifle is her Steven's favorite in .22LR. Great little rifle, actually. I'm looking forward to pics!

When I got home, I still have not found the internals for my M1 carbine bolt, but I did find the box of .32 lead balls that should have gone with the re-loadable cases.
D'oh!
If time, chance and random process can produce a platypus why not an ammo tree?
