Ruger
Single Seven, .327 Federal Magnum
Particularly
when loaded into a small-frame double-action revolver like the Ruger SP101,
the.327 Federal Magnum cartridge is ideal for personal protection. However,
many small-game hunters desired a practical medium-sized single-action revolver
for the round when it was first launched in 2012. With an eight-shot Blackhawk
revolver and a seven-shot double-action GP100, Ruger attempted to placate the
handgun hunters, but what they truly want was a Single-Six-size firearm that
was more compact and svelte.
Hamilton
Bowen, a custom gunsmith, has been changing the barrel shank back, recutting
the forcing cone, and installing a new cylinder for the longer.327 Federal
cartridge in Single-Six revolvers that were initially chambered to.32 H&R
Magnum. But now, shooters can purchase a factory-made Ruger Single Seven
through Lipsey's (one of Ruger's key distributors).
By
the way, because they have the same bullet diameter and case specifications,
with the exception of length, as the.327 Federal, the.32 H&R Magnum,.32
S&W Long, and.32 S&W cartridges can be shot safely in the.327 Federal
Magnum Single-Seven. These three cartridges produce less pressure than the.327
Federal because they have shorter casings that can store less powder. It is
comparable to the scenario with the.44 Magnum,.44 Special, and.44 Russian cartridges.
