Loaded ammo probably not.  Most people reload and there are plenty of .313 and even larger bullets available.  For example, look under Product Desription.

In my experience a 32-20 with a worn bore may never shoot.  Good luck.

32-20

What ammo is he using. I had a Rem. rolling block that would keyhole Win.and rem factory lead loads,wouldn't even hit the berm at 50yds. Shot fine with hand loaded rounds with the lyman 3118 sized at .312

10 grs of RL7 with the rest of the case capacity filled with PSB (Poly Shot Buffer - flexible gas check) should do the trick.
PSB worked in my 1873 Winchester .44 W.C.F. with it's less than perfect oversized barrel (.435") with undersized bullets. ;D
