Can they use existing frames for 38/357 handguns for the 327? I know with most of the ultralight and titanium alloys, the 327 weight/velocity figures so far with the test ammo puts it well into the "no no" zones for those designs.

If a 110 grain and under slug moving at 1300fps+ in a 357 is going to kill that frame with gas cutting really quick, then wont the 90-100 grain 327 slug do it as fast or faster?
As far as what i can get on Taurus anyway, yeah i know most of you are cringing at the idea of a taurus ultralite gun.. the .327 federal is way way past the safety limit as far as cylinder erosion goes for the .357 revolver with titanium finish. And from what little i can see, taurus has merely swapped standard 357s into .327 at least when they get to producing their new .327 federal chambered pocket revolvers.
