About .327 Federal Magnum Ammunition
Federal and Ruger introduced the .327 Federal Magnum in 2008. By using a smaller diameter bullet at high pressure, it lets compact revolvers hold six rounds where a .38 or .357 would hold five, while delivering velocity well beyond .38 Special.
Common loads range from 85 to 115 grains. Light soft points and hollow points are fast and expand well for defense and small game. Heavier bullets add penetration for larger animals.
One of the cartridge's best features is flexibility. A .327 Federal Magnum revolver can fire .32 H&R Magnum, .32 S&W Long and .32 S&W, so you can practice with mild, cheaper ammo and carry full-power loads. It is a smart choice for shooters who want more punch without heavy recoil.
Revolvers in .327 Federal Magnum
Ruger introduced the cartridge in its SP101 revolver, and models like the Ruger LCR and Single-Six have followed. Its higher capacity and flatter trajectory make it a practical choice for carry and small game.
