SP-101 Conversion?

[Yoda]

I've got one of Ruger's SP-101s that was factory-built for 32 HMR Magnum. I've been wondering whether it could be converted to the new .327 Federal by swapping out the cylinder. I wrote Ruger to ask if it could be done, and all they gave me back was a cryptic, "We don't perform that service." OK, Ruger doesn't do it, but can it be done?

Yes, it can be done. I had mine done and it shoots great. No cylinder change, just a rebore to the .327 Federal.
