It's often mentioned that a number of different cartridges will chamber in a 32H&R or 327Federal magnum handgun. I was curious about a comparison of the members of the family,namely 32 S&W,32S&W long,32H&R,327Mag.,and the (semi-rimmed)32ACP. I included a handload of mine. All other ammo was factory, 5 shot groups.
At 10 yards ,over a rest,POA was the same for all groups,and as expected, POI shifted lower with increases in "power".
Draw your own conclusions, but take into account ,ammo of each group was a single type, which may, or may not be ideal for the test gun,a Ruger Single Seven in .327 Mag.
The 327 Fed Mag was by far the most unpleasantly powerful round.
Feel free to pose any questions I have not addressed.
