I have a unfired 3 screw 30 carbine ruger that I have been saving for some reason. I already have single action .32 mags. and a .327 mag. Also D/A .32-20 revolvers. What should I use this revolver for?

32-20 , 327 and 30 carbine are 3 pods in a pea . There is so little difference in them I would keep the 3 screw unfired since you have all the base covered . The 32-20 and 327 is a rimmed 30 carbine ........

30 Carbine Blackhawk makes a fine 300 GNR.. Go about 2/3 down the page here to see a picture.. www.reedercustomguns.com/information/GNR_cartridges.htmAnd read: This is our 300 GNR. This one is simply a shortened 30-30 and intended for revolver use. We took the old 30 Herrett and shortened it 1/10 of an inch and made the case a bit straighter and the shoulder a bit sharper. This one will put a 110 gr. JHP out of a 7 inch barrel at 2200. No set back problems with this one either. Can be rechambered from a 30 Carbine Ruger. |

The 300 GNR (originally designed by Bob Rayzak and called the 30 Streaker) is a fine cartridge. As Gary advertises, the straight walls, short neck, and sharp shoulder allow it to function fine in revolvers. And I agree, the 30 Carbine, 32-30, and 327 essentially do the same thing. If you opt for a second cylinder, consider a 300 GNR. It'll outpace the others by 300 - 400 fps across all bullet weights. -Lee www.singleactions.com |
