These grips cover the rear of the frame, and provide room for the pinkie.<br />Reloads I carry in a speed strip, because I find speed loaders bulky and cumbersome. An AK or SKS stripper clip will also work for .38/.357 cartridges.<br /><br />I inherited a 1915 vintage Winchester Low Wall in .32-20. This lovely rifle is in excellent original condition, but ammunition is very scarce.<br />I think the .327 Fed. Magnum might be a good match for this rifle.<br /><br />=BCE56=Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4533651942397782565.post-37373518542384323622016-01-09T17:49:59.260-08:002016-01-09T17:49:59.260-08:00For the P-239, I've probably acquired 11-12 hu...For the P-239, I've probably acquired 11-12 hundred rounds of target practice or frangible and another 200 rounds of JHP since purchasing the gun. It's a pocket rocket!<br /><br />My primary pistol is the SIG P320 Compact in .40 S&W with plenty of pills for it. <br /><br />DISCLAIMER: I don't stash thousands of rounds as some folks do. Many would say I am ammo "poor."

Whatever else happens in the world - zombie apocalypse, WW-III, another democratic pres - there'll still be cheap 9 mm practice ammo available. <br /><br />I wouldn't mind the .327, it looks nice, but ammo availability is a big issue now.

Seems like an off beat round, but it has good press as a choice for self defense.c w swansonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02735507642689652780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4533651942397782565.post-80641295086311018662016-01-09T06:41:18.460-08:002016-01-09T06:41:18.460-08:00I bought a Ruger SP-101 in that caliber when they ...I bought a Ruger SP-101 in that caliber when they first came out. Had a very difficult time finding target ammo for it. I could always find personal defense rounds for it but that's way too expensive for practice. Ended up selling it. Replaced it with a SIG P239 in .357 SIG caliber. Haven't looked back. Still, the .327 Fed Mag is a fine round.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
