Default .327 Federal Magnum

Am I the only one sad to see this round drying up?

From my perspective it was unique in that it let you shoot stuff just barely over .22 LR level with .32 S&W, step up a little to .32 S&W Long, move to a more than marginally effective defensive round wit .32 H&R Magnum for the recoil sensitive and then step up to hot short barrel 9mm performance with the heavier loaded .327 Fed. rounds. If you never tried the top end Speer 115 gr. loads or the heavy Keith semi-wadcutter loads from Buffalo Bore out of a J frame S&W trust me they will make you a believer in this as an effective defense set up.

The wide range of terminal ballistics and recoil available by all the loads a .327 chambered gun will handle made this a great gun to train new shooters moving them up as their ability to handle recoil increased.
