.327 mag is doing fine. I see it at most shows for sub 30$ a box. I don't know why we needed a revolver cartridge to replicate 7.62 tok, but you'll be fine.

.41 mag is fine. Components and loaded ammo are easy to find. It is also pretty fun to shoot. Stop being a twonk.

>>30388878
Can it be rebarrelled to a more common WSM? Like 300 WSM or 300 WSSM?

It should be possible but requires a new barrel. Something Browning doesnt endorse for their actions.

Short mags are just dumb

Depends on how it's used but it was mostly a marketing issue. Better heavier bullets compared to the Tok plus a handy 6 shot,small frame revolver that'll take several different cartridges isn't a bad idea. selling nothing but Shorties and a single action....not so much

What it really needed at inception was a longer barrel and a lever gun companion… besides, you know how much of a hard on people have for 7.62x25 even though other round surpass it as well

I used to, but now the price is insulting. It may not be all that expensive but it's still bullshit

reload isn't hard. you can make the brass from common cases and it eats AK 7.62 bullets.

surplus is rare, expensive, and corrosive.

Where do you live?
When I first got into .357 Sig, about 2 years ago, it was nowhere to be found in the state of Colorado, now the local Cabelas has plenty in stock pretty much all the time, and a pretty good selection too. Its only slightly more expensive for plinking ammo than .45 acp, and only slightly more expensive for defense ammo than 10mm. You can also find it at local shops, but they charge 30-50% more per box.

Ruger had a seven shot GP100 in .327. Apparently it didn't sell well. Neither did the eight shot Blackhawk.

Currently the snubby is an LCR. The only SP101 is a four inch model with target sights.

A lever gun in .327 would be pretty boss. What I'd like to see is Ruger bring back the Deerfield Carbine and offer it in all the standard length Magnum calibers.

Reload!
I make my .44mags for about ¢35 a round.

>500 .500 335gr PHP $75.99
> 2lb Aa#9 pistol powder, $42.99 enough for 400+ rounds
>100 Starline cases $53.99
>1000 primers, $32.99

You're looking at barely $200 to reload 400 rounds...
>that's ¢51 a round
You can afford to plink with .500 S&W If you're not retarded
>>
7mm Rem. Mag. is the most meme caliber I have. Never encounter a situation where it gives me any improvement over .308, should have just went with that.
>>
>>30388551
.50AE
I also got a .357 and .44 barrel for it.

Wish somebody made a rifle in this, but since people started cutting down .500 S&W for single action revolvers, the Deagle is pretty much the only gun in .50AE on the market.

I would argue the heavier bullets point to a degree, as I have never had a problem with my tok feeding everything from 90gr JHPs to 110 SPs.

But other than that, I think you are correct. As long as 327 has ruger's support, it'll putter along.

I just looked it up, midway has starline brass for .26c a pop. That's a fucking great price. 38-40 apparently is the hot shit right now.
