An LCR chambered in 32 magnum !

I just picked one up for my mother-in-law. 327x2, 32 h&r.

Very nice family picture !

Have been to the range three times and the 32 magnum LCR has been reliable and accurate enough for my old hands and eyes. Shoot some on paper but mainly a steel silhouette target at 7 yards. Hits steel every time !

May have asked before, but do you have any velocity data? If you still have the Charter Professional, could you chrono both with the same ammo and see if the LCR isn't too far behind? Also, off chance, if you have a .327 LCR I would love to know if there's a difference between it and the .32 Mag LCR in velocity with the same ammo.

I do not have a chronograph and actually sold my Charter Arms Professional. It had this annoying problem that when you closed the cylinder the latch would not go forward without wiggling the cylinder back and forth much more than normal. With the cylinder latch slightly back the trigger and hammer were locked. I have a Charter Arms Off Duty in 32 magnum that works just fine.

Cmon Ruger. Where’s that 3” lcrx in .327 you promised us?

I would be very curious to see these numbers too. Both my Ruger SP101 (3" barrel) and GP 100(5" barrel) in .327 under perform velocity wise compared to my Charter Arms Professional when shooting .32 s&w and .32 h&r magnum.
