It is borderline criminal 327 Fed Magnum isn’t more popular. You’re right it is noticeably more blast, but it’s a defensive round. However, you can shoot more prevalent 32 H&R mag and 32 SW long for cheaper, quieter, and have less blast/recoil for practice and plinking in the same revolver. You can also shoot 32 SW short in the gun as well.

[@jeffhreid]

Completely agree. Excellent observations

[@anonymouse7074]

Too bad the guns are expensive, and so is the ammo. Long is 70c last I checked, and magnum $1

[@robertgray4374]

Like the 38 is to 357 magnum, 32 H&R Mag is to 327 Fed Mag. That's the ticket.

Agree 100%. Great revolver as it can fire all the 32 cartridges. I also have the Taurus 327 but it is a handful for the magnum loads. This revolver is just right for the 327 mag.

[@327Federal]

327 Fed Mag also chambers 32 H&R, 32 S&W Long, 32 S&W Short and even 32 ACP since it’s a semi-rimmed case!

[@danielboggan2479]

32 ACP should not be used. It’s rim isn’t as thick, and you run the risk of damaging the gun because of pressure problems

[@gregcampwriter]

I carry a Taurus 327 as a backup pocket gun. It's a handy piece for that function, and a local gun store has ammunition for it. It provides a good measure of power without being quite as snappy as a .357 would be, and my sense of it is that as a "get off me" gun, the difference wouldn't matter.

.327 Fed Mag is my favorite revolver chambering because it accepts FIVE different cartridges. Also love the .460 S&W and .44 Mag because the compatibility with weaker training/plinking cartridges like .454 Casull or .45 LC and .44 Spl or .44 Russian, respectively.

[@marktomlinson6016]

[@n.b.2164]

I like the .327 Mag. It's a fun round to shoot. It's an extra round in a revolver, it's pretty powerful and the recoil is manageable. Plus you can shoot 32 mag, 32 S&W Long, and 32 S&W short.

[@christopherlittle4725]

Good to see you up and at it my friend.

got rid of my Taurus 9mm auto because it jammed … not wanting to find any issues even with a revolver ! … glad your Taurus’ works !!

[@TheOfficialCaseMade]

I love the idea of the Taurus 327, especially the optic ready one... But they're kinda heavy for a J frame sized revolver, around 6 oz heavier than an LCR. I don't mind the weight as much on a 3 or 4 incher like the SP101, I feel like that's more of a range or woods gun.

[@CyborgZeta]

@@TheOfficialCaseMade I consider the extra weight of the Taurus 327 in my pocket an acceptable tradeoff for the ability to comfortably shoot .327. Yeah, I prefer to shoot .32 Long and .32 H&R, and carry the latter; but I can at least manage shooting .327 in the Taurus, if I wanted to carry it loaded with .327. By contrast, there is no way I would shoot .327 out of a lightweight snub like the LCR.

[@timsmith9645]

Awesome video nice 327 federal magnum thanks for sharing Hickok45

[@mag318]

My first 327 was a S&W 632 soon to be followed by a Ruger Single 7, then the subject SP101. The 327 is a very versatile chambering since you can also shoot 32s. Plus I have never had a problem finding ammunition. Federal even has an HST defensive round which is my go to carry round.

[@dangillaspie8927]

I kind of like it.I've got the GP 427 and I've even done a little bit of investigation.I loaded a 120 grain cast.Bullet handed shot beautifully.I looked at the chamber.There was no bulging or anything so that little gun will take more than what you realize

[@mikeknowles8017]

That caliber didn't catch on the way I thought it would. Seems like a great idea to me.

[@usa-rb5fi]

In a LCRx it’s a handful 😂

[@mikeknowles8017]

@@usa-rb5fi I've got a .357 LCRx. It's a handful too and I mostly shoot .38 +P in it. .357 mag tends to lose velocity in a snubby. A side by side chronograph of a .327 mag LCRx next to a .357 mag LCRx would be interesting.

[@danielboggan2479]

2008, the year it was released was the WORST possible time to release a new cartridge in my lifetime. The economy collapsed, so people weren’t buying new guns, and definitely not new guns in exotic chamberings. Then with the political situation, the ammo industry has to focus on 9mm, 380, 22, 357, 38 special, 40 and 45. Anything else went on the back burner.

[@bjorn8184]

Interessantes Video und schöner Revolver!

[@jmichna1]

I have the SP101 and the Taurus 327, both in .327 Federal Magnum. My SP101 came pretty "gritty" from the factory, so I ended up doing an MCarbo springs & shims upgrade, which made a night and day difference... DA pull is now very smooth and around 8.5 lbs, while SA is significantly under 4 lbs. I really like the ability to carry six rounds of "nearly' 357 mag performance in such a tiny package. I also did a Galloway hammer spring & trigger return spring swap on that Taurus 327, and it too is a fantastic little shooter! I only wish that S&W's "327" offering was rated for 327 Federal Magnum, rather than the less powerful 32 H&R Magnum!

[@concerned1313]

I just shot mine on Sunday and am having issues with getting the brass out when using 327. Will have to call Ruger and send it back. Disappointed. Love the round and can have others who are recoil sensitive shoot 32 SW Longs. I have been watching you for well over a decade, love the channel.

[@alpiazza4659]

I purchased a Ruger SP101 327 Federal with the 4.2 inch barrel a few years ago. Love the gun. Solid revolver that’s versatile and packs a punch. The main reason I opted for the 327 over the 357 was the extra round gives you 20% more firepower. The 327 round is a great defensive round but too expensive to use for the range. I have found that the .32 short and .32 long are difficult to find and when you do the price is also high. In short I love the gun, love the ammo, just hate the availability and cost of ammo.

The .327 federal magnum has hung around long enough that if the gun media pushes it the way 10mm got pushed, the round could become more popular. Ruger makes a new model single 7 with a 7 1/2" barrel, which is an interesting single action revolver to shoot.

[@usa-rb5fi]

Taurus has a snubby version now too

[@analogludite9575]

I had never even heard of the .327 Fed Mag until I saw this video. I got the Ruger single six in .32 H&R Magnum, as soon as they came out, way back when. It was a great little pest dispatcher and plinker. Ironically, it was easier for me to find .32 S&W Long ammo than the .32 Mag. I think at that time, the only other gun chambered for it was a 2" Charter Arms fixed sight belly gun. The mag had quite a bark out of a 5 1/2" barrel, I can't imagine it out of a snubby revolver.😮

I myself just picked up an SP 101 but it’s .357 mag . Lightweight . Only 5 rounds though. So far so good.

[@baconator754]

I think the .327 has great potential as a field cartridge, generally loaded down a bit to .32/20 speeds for small game with the hot ones in reserve, but no one seems to do that much anymore, and the .22 mag is excellent in that role as well with the right loads. A longer barrel would be nice for field carry, and might tone down the blast a bit. The blast is also a common complaint about the .30 Super Carry, the latest attempt to gin up a hot .32 defense round.

As a proper member of the WWII generation, Hickok prefers a J-frame. But for the blast noise of the 327 and size of that Ruger I think I'd prefer a Glock 32 on my belt. Never thought I'd describe a 357 as being quieter but it is in this case.
