I really want a Blackhawk in .327 Federal but I'm not willing to pay double the price of a new .357 for a used .327 model. I could buy a Single Ten, .357 Blackhawk, and send my H&R rifle to have a factory .357 barrel fitted for what the .327 Federal Blackhawks are going for on GunBroker.com!
So my questions:
1. I have never shot a Blackhawk. My local gun shop with a range and rental guns has a Blackhawk in .44 Special or 45 ACP. Would the .44 special give me a good feel for shooting the .357? I figure the recoil should be similar to shooting a hot .38 special load.
2. Is it worthwhile to get the convertible with the extra 9mm cylinder? I don't own any 9mm guns and have no plans to purchase any.
