I've been intrigued by this little cartridge for a while, although not intrigued enough to buy(or even rent) a gun a try it out.
The performance numbers on paper look impressive, as well as the fact that it can squeeze 6 cartridges into a J-frame sized gun. The small size of the bullet does scare me off, as does the limited ammo selection and expensive ammo prices. I realize that a .327 can also shoot .32 S&W and .32 S&W long, but availability and prices don't seem much better for those either.
The reported muzzle energies seem to indicate that recoil would be ferocious in a small gun, but the reviews I've read say that it's easier to tame than a snub-nose .357.
Any thoughts on any of the available options?
