Save your money on Silvertips in .32 acp. When I bought my first .32 the counter guy recommended Silvertips so I bought a box. When I tested them shooting through fabric into water the majority of the box failed to expand...could have bought FMJ for half the price and got the same performance.
This is actually thought by some to be a saving grace of the silvertip .32 round. In a longer barreled gun such as a 1908 pocket browning, they are much more likely expand than from a Seecamp or Kel Tec, where they will more likely penetrate as far as possible since they didn't have sufficient FPS to expand.
