While leafing through a gun magazine earlier I came across an article covering the .327 Magnum and the SP101 chambered for it. Up front I'll confess I'm one of those big bore nuts that believes it is simply not a proper handgun if the caliber doesn't begin with a four. That being said, I am intrigued by this combo. The ammo being tested was a 100gr JSP moving at 1400fps and is claimed to have 20% less recoil than the .357, which is apparantly somewhat gnarly to fire in the same 3" SP101 platform and the 327 Ruger has the additional advantage of having a six shot cylinder as opposed to the .357's five. The .327 will also chamber the .32 H&R Magnum, the .32 S&W and .32 S&W Long, quite a list for one wheel gun!
What I would like to know from the forum is whether this chambering offers any additional benifits thay can see to say a .38/.357?
