Finally going to complete my .327 Ruger

[Scott Tschirhart]

I’ve been shooting this gun for a while but the original front sight was way too tall. Now I have it filed perfectly and I sent it back to Fermin Garza for a replacement that is the correct height and with a recessed gold bead.

[Scott Tschirhart]

Here’s what it will look like.

[Bronco]

That's kewl

[Grizz]

that was my hunting sight, smaller bead on a longer barrel. I used to tell people who shot it "the bead is the bullet", "the bullet goes where the bead is" every time!! LOL

Here’s what it will look like.

Wow, that looks great. Can't wait to see it on the gun!

.now good luck finding ammo...

It is on the shelves here in San Antonio.

But I also load for it.

What's your favorite handload, Scott?

What's your favorite handload, Scott?

I’m afraid that I’m still experimenting. But I think an LBT LFN GC at around 100 grains is going to part of the recipe

Interested to hear more as you continue to experiment!

Front sights that I can see!

Wow, those look great!!!

I’m sure I can get better photos in better light. But these are really friendly to my eyes. A hair thinner than the factory blades and that bead really catches the eye without being overwhelming. Still a sharply defined top of the blade for elevation control.

A good coversation about the 327 federal a while ago on the shooters forum.

Scott, those sights look wonderful. Fermin makes good stuff!

[Scott Tschirhart]

Delivery was fast too. Just over a week from when I called him.

I was able to finally find some 100 grain Hornady XTP bullets. As soon as they arrive I’ll start loading.

Really slick looking sight. I've always liked a gold bead on my revolvers.

I was obsessed with my .327 when i first got it, then the ADD kicked in and got involved with some else. I'll have to get back to the .327, do enjoy shooting it. I did try several brands and weights but settled on the 100 XTPs as well.
Going to check out those front sights after i get it back out to the range. I should have some notes on my loads, but can't seem to find them.

Lookie what I found. Aluminum grip frame makes it light and handy.

I’m imagining 100 gr cast or jacketed bullets at 1200 to 1300 fps might be a comfortable place to be. I can get there with a variety of powders according to my Hornady manual.

It's a beautiful gun, Scott....thanks for the picture!

When he's sitting at home and pulls a gun out of his safe, my shooting partner strokes and pets his guns. I don't do that, nope I don't....not me.

only the one sitting on my legs at the time, the others just have to wait their turn . . .

I load the .327 with 115 grain flat points meant for the .32-20. H110 and they are accurate and fun.

[Scott Tschirhart]

I took delivery of a few hundred 115 gr Keith style bullets that Buffalo Bore loads and a few hundred 100 gr XTP bullets.

Let the experiments begin!

[Scott Tschirhart]

The federal factory loads are hotter than a wood stove!

85 gr factory load clocks right at 1500 fps!
