I'm assuming you have a Marlin model 1889, not 1887, as they never made a model 1887. The 1889 does have a patent date of 1887 on the barrel, so this is a common mistake. Any Marlin marked ".32W" on the barrel will normally be chambered for the .32-20 Win. cartridge.

It should fire until the water gets inside the ammunition and degrades the gun powder. If the ammunition is well sealed against moisture then it will shoot until the barrel clogs or the action rusts.
