Rifle in .327 Federal

[Shakey Jake]

My .327 can shoot more accurately than I can aim for sure. You can see some of my targets posted over in the range report thread @ 100 yards. I'm happy with that when I can eat up the target with 50 rounds to where it just looks line one big hole.

I just got my Spring 2018 copy of Guns Of The Old West. There is a good write up about the H.R.A. brass .327 rifle. He got 1834 fps. with 120 grain Double Tap ammo.

Hard to find DT. Actually, it's getting hard to find AE in .327 lately. I went to the range today. I didn't do as well as in the past ( I couldn't flinch the same way twice today ). I'll post the target tomorrow.

Finding that 115 grain cast bullets work well.

Hi,
" My name is 'Derf, and I have a problem..."
I just hit the buy button on my second Henry Big Boy Steel in .327Fed/mag. Both blued, both 20" barrels, identical save for the serial number. (I really do hope THOSE are different!
I've had the first one since August of last year.

Why 2?
Why not?

I absolutely love my first one.
The second may not get fired for years to come.
Kind of curious to see how far apart the serial numbers are.

A great item to pass down the generations

Kind of what I was thinking.
I have 2 nephews that will likely inherit my collection.
I wouldn't want them to have to argue over who gets the .327 rifle.

Got a pair of carbines for the same reason. I may be wrong, but I anticipate the .327 will take the same route as the .32 H&R. These may be quite the investment ... some day.

In the mean time, I really enjoy this cartridge.

If you mean the round will languish in relative obscurity, I sincerely hope you're mistaken, but I'll be prepared nonetheless.
When I got my first one, I bought 500 bright and shiny brand new Star-Line cases, and I have a friend that casts and powder-coats some nice .32cal pills for me.
I might just lay in a coupe more orders of cases, just in case...

[Frontiersman]

Me too. I bought 1000 cases.

The .32 H&R is still out there. And my 1894s are a favorite. But I was thinking the .327 rifles will probably be a short run like the Marlin's were. I wonder how well they are selling. My last one still had a SN below 500. I won't be surprised if in a few years, they fall into the "highly collectible" category.

In the mean time, I will enjoy my purchase.
