Ok, this 627 Performance Center is now my favorite wheelie
I just can't like any of my guns more than this one. Awesome trigger, easy recoil even with heavy magnums, 8 rounds, amazing accuracy, and it is actually easy to carry (for me). My only complaint is that its a bullet hose. With a range block, 5 speed loader, and 3 moon clips you can really burn through some ammo!!

In any barrel length a 627 PC revolver is just about the perfect do-anything handgun. That's a nice one.

I enjoy my old 27, not to say I'm not keen on the new models.
The N frame is spectacular for .357.

I have to agree, I recently picked up a very lightly used 327 TRR8 and it's the nicest handgun in my collection. It quickly became my favorite range gun and is also a perfect home defense weapon. Love the 8 round capacity. With 38s it almost feels like a .22.

At the rate you're burning through ammo; a reloading set up would pay for itself in short order! like the video! Mac

I know. I really have to get into reloading. Mostly due to this gun and my 45 ACP Wheelie bullet hose. Moonclips with that gun also burn through ammo.

You're spending way too much time reloading with those speed loaders. Get more moon clips and you can shoot more, faster

SPEED LOADER
I have a 627 performance center. I have been using moon clips but also have been looking for an 8 shot speed loader. Where did you purchase yours?

They're from 5 Star Firearms. I am a great fan of their products. Very high quality without being too expensive.
P.S. I really don't work for them; I just like their products

I did but didn't get a video of those. They fit the moonclips much better than the fiocchi brass. The Hornady 38s all went through one ragged hole.

Hmm..
Just as I thought. I am starting to think Hornady may be the best premium ammo that's affordable.
Impressive huh?

I love the 627 as well I then foolishly bought a 627-3 V-comp prelock that spoiled me sold the 627-5 and bought another 627-3 V-comp I like them that much. Those 8 shots are just great shooters.
Great shooting enjoyed the video approximately how far were you shooting from?

That was at the second flag which is 14 yards. I'll tell you at that distance this gun is like cheating.
