    I tried 3118 and found that a gas check was going to help me so I shifted over to 311316, same weight and profile. A#9 and CCI 500 primers. Work up, it seems that it peaks rather quickly, sorta like 22 Hornet. Good cartridge, I like it. I go for high end performance, if I want less I use 32 Magnum.

    There is a GP-100 in .327 Federal for sale locally at a very good price. How do you like the guns. Sorry for the hijack. The only ammo (no brass to be found) I had seen was very expensive I thought so I hadn't considered it, but I see ammo available at a reasonable price now.

    NH lever I was going to buy the 327 in the Blackhawk went down to LGS to order it and picked up the GP 100 and had to have it. I love it I'm glad that I cast and reload because ammo is kind of hard find to find I got 4 boxes of 50 rounds for $22 a box and have been casting and loading them it is a very nice cal I got mine for $539 otd I highly recomend one GO GET IT NOW

    Brass was available this summer. I have a CA Target Patriot but so far I have only shot 32 H&R in it.

    There is two group buys going on now you should check out. I already have a NOE 115 Kieth and love it. I got it in the Vendor Sponsor section. Guess it was an overrun. It's a 3 cav 2gc 1pb. I'm on the list to upgrade to a 5cav gc. The Miha sledgehammer mold looks like a bunch O' fun! Haven't seen a price as of yet, but, I'm thinking around $160.

    I got a .327 Fed on layaway and plan on loading for it. I noticed Midway is still out of brass. I guess I will just keep waiting and saving my factory spent brass.

    Don't bank your hopes on just one company for brass. Keep checking with Graf & Sons, Mid-South and any others you know.
