Re: 327 Federal Magnum
Owned several revolvers in 327 mag (several sp101's, an LCR and a Taurus), and have been reloading for it as well as the 32 H&R and 32 Long for years. Great cartridge with a lot of potential. In the LCR the 327 can generate some substantial recoil. With Federal 327 mag 85 grn reduced recoil loads, it feels very similar to a 38 special load. Shooting 32 longs is not much more than shooting 22's. Nice thing with the LCR is you can run loads from gentle 32 longs to 130 grn loads that will compete with the reduced recoil 357 loads on the market. Really like the cartridge, but it's largest drawback is ammo choice.... unless you reload a 38/357 in this platform is more practical in ammo availability and cost.
