SP101 range report in 327

[Kevin]

Well since reloading supplies are still a little hard to come by I was shooting my sp101 with 85 grain bullets. Ran out of those but found some 100 grain. The gun shot a lot better. With factory ammo the gun has a lot of recoil shooting 100 grain bullets. These not so much. Probably because I loaded them on the light side.

Anyway with any gun , it seems the more I shoot it the more accurate it is.

I didn't stay that long. It was hotter than hot. Throw in some humidity and the poor gun didn't like being outside a whole lot. The cases were pretty sticky to extract. But all in all a good time. Days I can hit the target are usually like that.

Glad to hear you enjoyed your 327. They are a hoot to shoot. I know what you mean about reloading components being hard to come by. Usually I load mine up with XTPs but at last check they were up an additional $5 a box so looks like I'll have to shoot the SWC for awhile. 327 is a nice little caliber and mine frequently rides with me to the range.

I like the 100 gr better than the 85, too.

If I didn't cast for the 32 family I couldn't afford to shoot it very much! I like the NOE 314008 I bought in a group buy a couple of years ago for my big stainless BH eight shooter, I imagine they would do pretty well for you as would bullets from the original old Ideal 3118/Lyman 311008 design which drops closer to 115 gr. I truly believe Ruger and the rest of the industry gave up on this caliber way too soon!
