A follow-up to the SP101 story in .327 Fed Mag. A recent email to Ruger resulted in them telling me they have no plans to reintroduce it... but...
The .327 Fed Mag lives on, in the new (July 2014) Ruger Single-Six 7 shot .327 Fed Mag revolver (with three barrel lengths available). Model numbers are 8160, 8161, and 8162. It is a Lipsey's exclusive... I think this will be a great size revolver...
I just bought a used Ruger SP101 in .32 H&R Magnum, with the intention of having Hamilton Bowen ream the cylinder 1/10th inch to accommodate the .327 Federal Magnum. Now I think I will keep it stock... enjoy the .32 H&R Magnum (which can be pushed to .327 Fed Mag limits, albeit in a smaller case, in a stout revolver like the SP101) for what it is.
