Well, my 4" .32M SP101, despite it's being delivered new with a horrid trigger, is definitely a keeper today. Some total dissection, TLC, new lighter Wolff springs, and a longer Hogue rubber grip, made mine a real plinker. Sure it gets the GA Arms 100gr JHP (XTP) .32 H&RMs to a chrono-ed 1,186 fps - decent protection. But... my 115gr LRNFP, actually .32-20 bullets, at 820 fps hit close enough vertically from 10-25yd to be real fun plinkers. Remember, the cheesy adjustable rear sight on an SP101 is adjustable in windage only - and only used on the long gone .22LR, .32 H&RM, and now, the .327 Magnum versions. It really deserves a better rear sight. At 28 oz, it aint my idea of a pocket protector. I'll stick with my five-shot .38 Special (642) and .44 Special (296).
My pusher had a new Ruger .327 Magnum for $429 a few weeks back - bet it's still there. He had no ammo for it! Sadly, I don't predict a huge future for the round. The .32 H&RM variants weren't canned for great sales.
