We may be missing a bet with the new .327 Federal Magnum cartridge. It is being touted as a defense revolver round. OK, I'll concede that it whips up a fair amount of energy, but in my book, no cartridge that uses a 100-grain bullet is ever going to have enough smack 'em to stop fights. The .327—which is really a .312—is closer to the grand old .32 WCF or .32-20. This is one of the greatest critter-gitter rounds ever, but not what I would call a man stopper. What I would like to see is this: Mike Harvey, down at Cimarron, ought to have his Italian associates whip up a pair of guns for this round. How about a light Model '92 rifle with 2/3 magazine and slim barrel matched up with his scaled-down Peacemaker with flat top frame and adjustable sights—both in .327?
