    New Lipsey's Henry 327 Federal Magnum !

    I see on Lipsey's website that they have 4 models.

    Does anyone have any more details ?

    I wonder how short a cartridge it'll feed ?

    Regards
    Russ

    I hope they built it to accept all of the precursor cartridges. That would be a very neat gun if they did!

    Collecting .32 molds. Please let me know if you have one you don't need, cause I might "need" it!

    I hate it when there's no link.

    None of them are new. I own all four models. They will fire all the 32s including 32 ACP. Just don't expect that one to be accurate. I love the round. It's much more pleasant to shoot than a 357. My hopes were dashed quickly when I saw they were the models I already own. I was hoping for new ones

    They're not on Henry's website.

    Sounds like a very good idea to me .wondered how long it would take for someone to make a rifle for that round.

    My bad, I thought it was the Rugers. I read the thread title wrong. I've known about the Henry for a while. I will pass because it's a Henry and I really hate their rifle designs.

    I'm intrigued by this as I love the .32-20 WCF but brass and rifles for it are hard to come by.
    Currently casting and loading: .32 Auto, .380 Auto, .38 Special, 9X19, .357 Magnum, .257 Roberts, 6.5 Creedmoor, .30 WCF, .308 WCF, .45-70.

    I have to agree. Their rifles do not impress me at all. A real lever action CF should have a loading gate.

    And woods hunting / loafing carbines should weigh less than a long ton.

    that's my issue with them.
    I will sometimes need to make a quick ammo change when hunting.
    other times I want to top off the magazine while still having the ability to quickly use the rifle.

    I feel the same...multiple reasons that I don't hold them in high regard.

    Maby this will spark Marlin to add this chambering! I have a Marlin in 32H&R but would like to try the 327.

    Doubt it. They just got production right for the 1894 line. I would buy one instantly if they did. But I'm not going to hold my breath waiting for them to add new chamberings.

    I have a Marlin 32 H&R Mag and it has the rimfire type loading tube, works great, I dont expect any Indians to attack while shooting it soo topping off the magazine is not a big deal to me?
