The cartridge runs a little lower pressure than .327Fed, and the headspace can be tricky with reloads. I'd figure what works for one should work ok for the other, but I've got a couple of loads that are on the scary side for my Blackhawk that will kill every mosquito within 50 feet on a humid day. Both should be equal as far as hogs and 'yotes from fairly close. Regards, Rabbit. I’ve owned a Blackhawk in .30Carbine for a number of years.

Overall, I think the 327 FED is overdue, but, that's just my opinion. The 327FED is a better "short magnum" than 38spl +P was to be. Small frame guns can carry 6 rounds easily and larger frames can go 7 or 8. and with a 125gr JHP or JSP, your getting better than 38spl performance. Compare this to the 45GAP disaster from Glock, you quickly realize that Ruger is much better at listening than talking to their customers like Glock.
