He is going to convert the Model 48 cylinder to .327 Federal, D&T it for the scope mount and do an action job on it. The plan is to put a Leupold 4X or 2x scope on it and use it to hunt deer. It should be a very nice light recoiling deer gun
I would buy a new 627 and save the 16, they are making a 327mag in the N frame for less cost than the 16. the 16 will go up $500 in five years.
