haven't had a new gun in awhile so figured this SP101 in 327 Federal would be nice as an early birthday present to myself.

Nice, my buddy had one and it shot very well. His son-in-law claimed it after he passed, smart move.

327 Federal?
Nice looking revolver!!

yeah....had Ruger on my mind for some reason and fingers typed it instead ....i edited it..

Nice!

You've done well, Grasshopper...

If I didn't have access to a damned fine 32 H&R magnum, I'd need one of those too.

Nice snag, Rattler.

gonna have to swap out the grips, lil small for my hand....double action is heavy and a lil gritty but the single pull is nice...

Hogue makes a set that will let you hang your pinky finger on board. As for the DA, you can always clip a coil or two and I've never seen a centerfire Ruger revolver that didn't benefit from beaucoup dry fire.

sit and shoot idiots on TV....got it

Double check for empty cylinder though. It gets expensive otherwise.

left the box of ammo in another room on purpose gonna have to get some dies and load up some lead though.....local shop just has the Federal 100 grain JSP's....looks like there is a fair number of bullets out there to play with....

not even sure why the 327 interests me so much...lil on the light side for anything but a perfect shot on deer....for similar size i would rather pack my 1911 for CCW....but it ought to be fun for popping gophers and jackrabbits with not to mention no recoil rock killing...

few hours of absentmindedly pulling the trigger then tearing it apart and oiling everything really good again and most the grittyness is gone....still heavy...will either trim the spring like you suggest Joel or a Wolf spring kit is sub $10....not sure which i'll try first...

That will be a good one

Enjoy...

Nice gun. Try a Hogue grip. Thank me later. Makes a Huge Difference.

Yep, as mentioned, get some Hogue's, comfortable, slim, and cheap. They do smooth up after a lot of dry firing. I really like the 4.2" SP101 but don't have one in 327 Fed. Enjoy it!

Very nice indeed. Lots of versatility in terms of cartridges, too. Do they still make this revolver?

it's a .32 H&R Magnum on steroids. Can, in fact, accept .32 H&R Magnum and .32 S&W Long.

its on Rugers site, had my local shop order it in for me and had to wait a couple weeks cause none of their suppliers had one in stock...

after 30 some rounds yeah im getting the Hogue grip, this one sucks for my hands.....and compared to my 1911 it really explodes water bottles

Nice looking piece, rattler. Happy Birthday, BTW. I really like that round.

Saw one of these used at LGS yesterday for sale.

Handled one a month back. Still Jonesing...

As Joel and others have said the Hogue grip makes it much better, actually fits my hand now....

i have both bullet weight and high velocity now

Nice family pic, rattler. How'd you get the Hogue Mono so fast up there in the Hinterland? Swap flave o' flave for a 20 lb bag of rice?

Kidding aside, Hogue's look good. The one I saw in my LGS still had the originals on it, too. Loved the gun. Didn't like the grips. Thought they felt "needy".

Found it at Shiptons Big R in Billings.....did a big loop through the state(and part of Wyoming) Wednesday through today.....my 1911 was down in Cody, WY till i picked it up Thursday evening after which i drove to Helena
