    .327 puzzler

    Went to the range today to test loads in the .327. Tried loads in .327 and .32 H&R brass. On a whim I dropped in some .32 longs loaded with an accurate 105 rnfp over 2.5 of promo. Case much shorter than the gun was designed for. 25 yards Wever stance. Suprise!

    Paper targets aren't your friends. They won't lie for you and they don't care if your feelings get hurt.

    I have heard that the .327 is an endangered species. I like the idea of being able to shoot 5 different cartridges in one gun.

    I could personally care less about shooting five different cartridges from one revolver but I think the .327 cartridge is the caterpillar's spats.

    32 long has a really nice balanced case to bore ratio.

    I see you use the same targets as me....
    You can miss fast & you can miss a lot, but only hits count.

    Hope I get results even CLOSE to yours with my 3 inch sp101. I have only loaded mine with American eagle 100 grain factory rounds. Haven't even had the chance to shoot it yet.

    Dunno about .327 but my .32sw longs shoot great out of my Ruger NM SS. Could not ask for any better.

    And with 90 gr cast over 2 grains of Red Dot they truly are a pleasure to shoot. Easy on hands/wrists and ears.
