Has anyone loaded 327 specifically for long barrels? By long I mean 18 to 20 in any of the available lever guns. Thank you

I don't have a .327 in a rifle but my experience with a .32 H&R in a 22" barrel showed that the slowest powders produced the greatest gains in the rifle barrel. Back in the day, that was H110.

I’d take a Low Wall 327 in a heartbeat.

I’ll have to double check my notes but I’m pretty sure I hit 1400 with a 100gr xtp out of a 4” SP-101 with Accurate #9.

I have the 20-in Henry lever action that I purchased in 2017, and posted a bit about it on the cast bullets website. Looking it over, it turns out that the hundred grain Hornady load was going about 1715 out of a 6-in revolver, with quite a lot of velocity variation, and then clocked at about 2,084 out of the 20-in henry. The rifle loads were so much more consistent. I think that my later experience using 296 and 300 MP for maximum velocity with heavier bullets also showed that the consistency was much greater when they were burned in a longer barrel.

Do not think so we will re check it when the weather here warms up...
