Ruger 327 federal sp101 available

[bigbillyboy]

Anyone looking for 4.2 inch sp101 ruger just made a run . Ordered one from Davidson's gallery of guns.

Picked mine up today. Haven't shot it yet, but looks good, and feels nice in my hand!

A 4.2 inch would be nice, I have a 3" gun

 

[Ruger Accumulator]

It balances nicely. I wanted the little bit extra for the added muzzle velocity, and sight radius.

Hope to get mine by the weekend . I have the sp in 357 with the 4.2 inch so other than the caliber difference I know what to expect .

I've had mine from the first run made (2015) I do prefer the hogue grips.
The American Eagle 100gr JSP rated at MV-1500fps, is definitely stout…

Per Chuck Hawks, a very good read on this gun…

The .327 is the most powerful .32 handgun cartridge ever offered. It also hits about twice as hard as the .32 H&R Magnum. For example, the American Eagle factory load using a 100 grain jacketed soft point bullet has a catalog MV of 1500 fps with ME of 500 ft. lbs. (That ME puts it in the power class of .45 ACP +P loads!) These ballistics were achieved in a 4" vented test barrel and, based on our chronograph testing, are close to reality.

Ruger SP101 .327 Mag. Revolver w/4.2 inch Barrel

Also like the 6 rounds -vs- the 5 in 357M. Great little running around gun.

I passed up a nearly new one a few years back for $500. I'm still kicking myself over that one.

I Have not got to the range yet ( rain every saturday) , rounding up brass . Starline just made a batch of 327 .. Nickel and brass .

Well that's interesting. I placed a back order a month or so ago, with the understanding that they would notify me, and give me a chance to order when they did a run. Haven't heard a thing.

I can't believe they would do a run, and not make enough to satisfy all the back orders.

I ordered the brass from midsouth . Didn't buy directly from starline ,but the starline website showed it as available for a few days as I can remember .

 

[bigbillyboy]

I just this minute checked midsouth , regular Brass 327 still in stock 29.99 for 100 . Graf and sons also has it at 32.99 for 100 .

 

[Ruger Accumulator]

Thank you, I ordered a few hundred from Midsouth, along with some 100 gr. XTPs.

I always try to deal direct with Starline, as they usually have the best price, and free shipping. I had some .327 backordered, and I thought the way it worked, was they would send me an e-mail when they were available, and I had so many days to confirm the order.

Not sure what happened with that.

Oh well, I guess the way things are now, I should just be thankful to get some!

I ordered 400 rounds of Starline .327 brass from Graf's last month.

 

[bigbillyboy]

Yeah , not sure about direct orders from Starline from the sound of it .....

 

[bigbillyboy]

Yes , I think it may be a good idea to get a lifetime supply based on your shooting volume . I read about old calibers and no available brass . I remember not to long ago seeing partial boxes of 5mm , 218 bee and others bringing outrageous prices at auction. And you never know the future ........

 

[Laserbait]

I snoozed and loosed on the Starline backorder for 327. The next go-around I'll get it.

Thanks for the heads up. I ordered one today from Family Firearms. Best price I could find.

 

[Ruger Accumulator]

I was curious what was going on, so last night I submitted a contact to Starline asking why 327 was available everywhere, but I didn't get my backorder.

I haven't gotten a reply, but today I got a shipping notification, that I have a parcel on the way from Starline! I'll let ya'll know what happens.

Maybe just an oversight ?
