- Shooting some water filled pumpkins with .22 LR, .38 Special, .327 Federal Magnum, .410 and .45 Colt, .357 Magnum and .44 Magnum. Thanks to Guns&Cars for mentioning my plans to do this video / gunscars
Always appreciative of any channel help :) www.patreon.co...

Appreciate the multiple mentions and the pinned comment brother. 000 buck at 750fps is a joke lol, but that's kinda what I wanted to see so thanks for doing it. Your .357 seemed to do near identical damage as my .40s&w did. This is why I'm a huge .40 fan- 10mm would only be better 😁
@@BuckeyeBallistics Thanks for watching. All the old police data on .357 Mag and .40 S&W would suggest that the pumpkins tell the truth.
Link to gel test of this .327 Federal Magnum ammo. It is Double-Tap 75 gr Tac-XP and in my 1.875" LCR I got 1,335 FPS AVG/297 FPE. ruclips.net/video/d8VUsZBIe0A/видео.html
The .357 and the .44 performed about how I would expect them to. The one that really impressed me was the .327 Fed Mag... a tremendous amount of effect from such a small package in a snubbie
On top of it, the lower end .327 Federal ammo like the Double-Tap has around 300 ft lbs energy, same recoil as .38 Special but closer to the effect of .357 Magnum. It has everything and fits in my pocket, even has 6 shots instead of 5. Capacity is low but I tend to hit everything I aim at because the LCR trigger is light.
@@GunSam Plus, revolver guys are just better shots in general... they don't really need the extra capacity
@@GunSam yeah I'm impressed 👍 currently carrying 38sp running truncated 127gr (ammo Inc non HP) and get some really good results with almost no recoil, but the .327 is looking even more impressive for both terminal velocity and follow-up shots 🔥(p.s-- would love to see more tests of flatnose/truncated non-hp options for those of us in areas where that's the only thing available 🙏🙏🙏)
@@grahamohea2424 Maybe lol. One thing I find funny is for whatever reason, people that shoot autos and nothing more will assume that a reload requires someone to singly reload each round. They never heard of speed loaders, speed strips or anything else. Shot 6 to shot 7 could be obtained in 2 seconds with practice.
I love the 327. My LCR is my favorite revolver for sure. It’s too bad that the caliber isn’t more widely known. I’ve asked guys at gun shops if they have 327 federal magnum ammo and some have said “you mean 357 magnum?”
327 Federal obliterated that pumpkin. Even with a tiny snub nose barrel. It is truly a Modern Marvel.
It's an awesome cartridge. Feels like shooting a .38 Special, hit the target like .357 Mag from a snub.
Yep 327 is a dandy self-defense cartridge!
@@michaelrains2268 MORE OF THIS !
The .357 Magnum will always be my all-time favorite round, but the .327 Federal Magnum has really been coming into its own, especially now that more ammo manufacturers are producing more premium loads for that cartridge.
That was a good demonstration showing that 44 mag. and 357 mag. are in a league of their own.
The 327 mag is such a great round for carry. I have never understood why it isn't more popular. Low recoil, good terminal ballistics, light concealable sized firearms, I have always been surprised that it didn't really catch on.
Fun times! Your 32 carry ammo was impressive...
Happily surprised by the 327. LCRx here, great gun.
The 327 did a heck of a job! That cartridge is really impressive. thanks for the show.
Awfully hard not to be impressed by 357 and 44mag full powers.
I think it was expected, but the .327 really surprised me
There is no denying your .327 pocket gun beats the monstrous .410 and the 686 is still the one to look up to.
I was impressed the .312 caliber was able to crack up a water filled pumpkin.
I'm impressed with the . 327 magnum out of the LCR. Too bad it's not a readily available round. At least for now.
Yeah, hard to find. Best you could do now days is the Buffalo Bore .32 H&R+P, about the same energy as the Double-Tap. Federal announced nearly a year ago they were releasing an HST .327 Federal, but so far I haven't seen it anywhere.
@@GunSam If it starts becoming more available I'm going to invest in an LCR.
@@LionquestFitness Or invest in the Lee .32 H&R Magnum die set lol. Apparently the .327 Federal set doesn't exist but Lee says you just use the .32 H&R one. One thing I do like is being able to find .32 S&W Long anytime I want and shoot that. Fun to shoot like a .22.
Exactly. Can't find any 327 fed mag ammo
@@LionquestFitness what type of gun are you holding up in your picture. Looks like old H&R .
That 357 magnum was awesome!, My favorites were 357 and the 44 mag.
Would like to repeat this running 20" carbine lever guns with the .357 and .44 to see the increased drama.
Fun test.
LG50 over on his channel shot a big water-filled pumpkin with a hot .50-110 and it looked like a grenade lit off. Pieces of pumpkin blew sky high.
That was fun to watch and informative. The 327 Federal was very impressive! You could use that for a unique different trick for Halloween! Bet the kidos won't stick around for the the treats! LOL
I remember back ,some time ago, you shot a Buffalo Bore 357 magnum 125 grain and chronographed it at 1700+ fps that would have absolutely been the best at 1 shot "explosion".... another good review👍👍
Thanks. I have ran that ammo at least 3 times from 3 different boxes from my 686. The other boxes averaged closer to 1,600 FPS, but that's still pretty good.
Pop a Buffalo Bore .357mag 158gr in a 20" lever gun. North of 2,153 fps / 1,627 ft-lb. !!
327 is also my carry weapon, I had load this caliber and. 32 h&r mag. It's an awesome round.
Great video, thanks! Love that .327 round.
Thanks
the 32/327 has plenty of life in it :D Happy Friday
like you...i carry the 327 ruger....and thats why!!!! thanks
Good fun video watching the pumpkins fly apart. Interesting with all the different ammos. Thanks for sharing. Take care.
Thanks for watching! Take care.
I learned about 327 Fed Mag Yesterday, I want one today. What a spicy little round!
Awesome video 327mag definitely surprised me.
I'm quite impressed with your daily carry in the 327 magnum. Great content and variety of revolvers and ammo. Awesome Job!
The more I see 44 magnum and owning one, the more I love the round and the capabilities of the revolver.
The 44 can do everything that can reasonably be expected of a handgun. I love them. It was the first caliber of handgun that I ever bought for myself. It was for a pig hunt. Having said that, a 357 magnum can do 95% and is actually all that most of us can master with the hottest loads. The versatility of both of these calibers is astonishing.
It is fall when Sam is wearing gloves and shooting pumkins.
Oh, the squirrels were happy that day!
That .327mag kicks @$$
I have been carrying the 327 for a few years now. I feel very safe with it by my side.
Sure glad I now have 2 snub-nose wheel guns. LCR in 327 Fed magnum and also a 442 in 38 special. Sams video's helped me choose the best ammo.
If I happened to have had the .38 Special+P 110 gr Critical Defense ammo I would have used them in this video. I have tested a lot of .38 Special ammo and it's that caliber much like .380 ACP where it seems to get text book expansion and penetration one test, then the next test it completely fails in some way. The Critical Defense+P is the one .38 Special that has the least of those failures, I mean it will happen from time to time but I have tested it more than any other round and I would estimate it has a 90% success rate for expansion/penetration. With .327 Federal it's easy to always have good penetration, but the choices are so low now days in ammo that recommending which round does best is difficult to do, but thus far in my limited testing the Double-Tap does the best.
@@GunSam I'm using Underwood #732 150gr Wadcutter 1,000fps, ME 333ft-lbs, PF 150 nice clean cut with 50cent exit hole on 1.5 inch thick hard boards
Critters going to love you!
Thanks for all the prep work on this, lots of fun to watch! 👍
Thanks for watching!
I’m just now learning about certain differences in revolver calibers and maybe the biggest surprise to me is the difference between 38 special and 357 magnum. The latter cartridge seems only a little bit larger and yet it seems far more powerful!
The difference is not really in the size of the cartridge, but rather in the pressure the round is rated at. The .357 Magnum is around double the pressure of a normal .38.
Hell yeah! Some more Governor! Thanks for the shout out been waiting for some more Governor footage
Hey! So how do I hit you up? What did I win lol 😂 I didn't even know I was playing
Great video. Only wish you had included some .32 H&R Magnums to compare with the .38s.
Out of all .32 calibers, that is the one that is hardest to find. That being said, unlike .327 Federal....hand loads I have made with .32 H&R are more powerful than most factory .32 H&R Mag ammo.
I think it would be interesting to re run this test in your old jug or not medium. Having a consistent container of water would be a more uniform test.
The .410 may not have looked impressive, but that's very similar to four .380 round-nose FMJ's per shot. Many people think .410 handguns are inadequate for defense, but not many people are going to continue fighting after getting .380 quadruple-tapped instantaneously. Just gotta make sure you have the right ammo, and you're carrying it in a very close-range setting.
I have one I may carry from time to time. I think of it as better odds of hitting a coyote that may be moving. You do have to make a mental note that the shot will expand and what is around the target.
The 357 Magnum 125 grain shows it is the more effective than the .44 180 grain Magnum 💯. Even thou the .44 Magnum is the more powerful of the 2. The .327 federal Magnum showed power as well 💯. Very impressive 🤝
Honestly mate perfect video. Just what I wanted to see the options you get with revolvers. I thought it would be good to hike with a couple of smaller revolvers and a bigger one. So you wouldn't have to reload or bring spare rounds, you could rely on your spare guns like in pirate days lmao
That's a fun way to make a jack-o'-lantern 🎃!
Excellent presentation
Great show uncle sam.
Appreciate ya
I’m late watching this video. I learned from Tools&Targets that pumpkins, even filled with water, have much less dramatic action than watermelons. Although still fun to watch and effective. 👍🇺🇸
Thanks for sharing and regards from new Washington !
And this is why i love the .327 Fed Mag. So so so so so under rated.
great video! If you ever do another one could you let the 45 Colt have a full pumpkin. I'd like to see how that compares.
I don't have any experience with the 327
I don't think I even seen any 327 ammo in any of my local gun shops. Then again we just have 2 in my ky small town
Awesome video! Love the 686 so much too.
Thanks
Sounds like hogs rooting when the pumpkin is hit
Best test yet
Awesome GSam《☆》Cheered me right up Brother👍🔥⛾A slice of Pumpkin pie later will be nice too🖖😎☮
You can tell that the .327 is a proper magnum and not a pseudo magnum like it's relative the .32 H and H.
This is probably why the internet was invented
TY good 2 know Fall is here & Angry Pupkin's abound now LOL ! As a DAV w/bad shoulder,hand,metal ankle etc 410 My go2 caliber now for Home defense & hunting turkey's & Dove occasonally w/3" shells ;)
Always a pleasure with The Magnum Boys 💯
Great video ! I love watching stuff get shot and you seem to have a blast doing it !
Thank you
Finally the scientific test we have all been waiting for
Once the water drains out of the pumpkin the rest of the shots will just go straight thru.
Nice video.
I am surprised that your channel does not generate more subscribers than it does. Keep doing what your doing!
I don't think I would like to be hit with either one. 🎃
As Jeff Quinn of GunBlast fame used to say: “These here are some nice rounds from DoubleTap.” 😂 💥 rip Jeff Another fine video GunSam
If you write to everyone “you won” no one will believe you lol
Just another fun day at the range! Hope one of those wasn't "The Great Pumpkin". Poor Linus would be utterly devastated!!🤣🤣
great vid always fun seeing the damage from different calibers and loads
Hard to beat the ole 44 💥🇺🇸💥
Great video, I wish you used the 44 special as well.
This was an interesting and fun one, keep up the good work 👍
Been too long since.327 has been on the channel.
That .327 is pretty nasty
Jolly good show! Most fun ya can have with your pants on...😮
Awesome, one punkin per gun. Please get a full picture of rounds, my pick? 327 mag
Happy Halloween
Thank you
Just a guess here but a .12 ga. shot might do the trick with maybe two shots tops!! 😆
Like I told Guns and cars, you need to fill the pumpkins with orange soda. That’s what Paul Harrell does, it has a little bit more of an effect because of the carbonation. I may do this video with pistols and try to shoot a little mini gourds. I think that would be fun to, not so much on the explosive power, but on the accuracy. Course I’ll probably go through a box of ammo trying to hit a couple of these lol
haha, maybe. Be 'fun' trying to fill them lol. I used my garden hose and it took like 35 seconds per pumpkin, they hold a lot of water. Mini gourd with .22's sounds fun, on like hanging on strings.
@@GunSam I may have to do just that :) tough for me to make videos like that, I only have a Sportsman’s club to shoot at, and with a lot of members, I can’t always set up great videos
Lots of fun. Interesting comparison between calibers. Thanks Sam.
Link to gel test of this .327 Federal Magnum ammo. It is Double-Tap 75 gr Tac-XP and in my 1.875" LCR I got 1,335 FPS AVG/297 FPE. ruclips.net/video/d8VUsZBIe0A/видео.html
People think of 32/327/7.65 rounds as being vastly smaller than ,38/357/9mm
They are only 1.35mm smaller, doubt you'd be able to tell the difference on the recieving end
The 327 is a meanie, should be more popular, they really motor out of a longer barrel or a lever gun.
This was entertaining. Let's try coconuts.
This is why of any of gun. The .357 Magnum is the 1 I have in my name ‼️ And if this order isnt avaible it's gonna be a sad moment for me 😭. Especially, after buying accessories for this calibur.
Love the 44 I live in Alaska I have 4inch 629-6 she is mean
After watching your recent videos on the .22, I have to say it totally failed the pumpkin test (Not scientific, but fun as hell). The magnums are King!
Yeah the pumpkin tests seem to favor the over 1,000 FPS stuff. The slower stuff can be very good, but you would need to shoot several lined up to see their potential.
Like to see the 350 Legend pistol damage
Well maybe someone has a video on on
So much for the impending Pumpkin Apocalypse! Those pumpkins don't stand a chance! OK, on a more serious note: .327 - wow! Until seeing your vids, the .32 family didn't quite "speak" to me; nor did the LCR. Well, my mind has been changed.
Great fun!!!...
Echoes of the Gunny and his 'enemy' [watermelons...]
Thanks!
Thanks a lot!
We found out that pumpkin are hard to kill
Any suggestions where I can get some .327 Federal Magnum Double Tap? I purchased the Ruger awhile ago but haven’t had any luck feeding it.
Unfortunately .327 Federal is near impossible to find. Even on ammoseek all you find is Underwood Xtreme Defender. Double-Tap .327 Federal isn't even available from Double-Tap currently. Your best choice right now if you wanted something similar in performance is to go to Buffalo Bore's website (they do not list on ammoseek like everyone else) or Midwayusa and look for their 100 gr XTP .32 H&R Magnum+P (.327 Federal is out of stock even at BB) because that's the 'best' load available for a .327 Federal revolver at the moment. I generally get by for training and carry by getting whatever I can at the moment for carry like that Buffalo Bore, and shoot .32 S&W Long or cheaper .32 H&R Mag for training.
@@GunSam Thank you - super helpful info. Nice job on the video! It was pretty indicative of the power of the cartridges you demonstrated.
Awesome test
Thanks
Have been shooting a long time, but I still don’t know what a BACKWARDS wad cutter is! 👴🏻🇺🇸👍🏻👍🏻
Hollow base wadcutter sort of like an airgun pellet with a hollow skirt. When you load it upside down/backwards it becomes a flat nose hollow point.
Thanks, I’ve learned something. 👍🏻
Perahps do something similar but include: 32 S&W Long JSP, 32 H&R Mag, 380 and 22 Mag......
Please show us what a .327 magnum can do to a cinder block. Thanks!
Double tap is nasty ain't it .
I have noticed they break the typical loading 'rules' to give people what they want. I have ran some of their 110 gr .357 Magnum before, (Corbon does this too) and rather than be safe against flame cutting, they just max out a 110 gr at 1,750 FPS.
That was pretty cool! I think I've been catching onto something rather obvious. If you want impressive looking results when you hit water filled objects like pumpkins or water jugs, velocity is the key. It also helps if the bullet explodes open on impact. This will kill penetration, but those splashes will be impressive!
So how do you get 2000fps out of a 2-3" barrel without turning your revolver into shrapnel?
Yes, exactly. I find the pumpkin and watermelon testing fun, but really it's a measure of how well energy dump is at shallow depth. You could get this good effect with or without adequate penetration.
@@GunSam Your carry ammo did very well on the pumpkins. I'm going to have to search to find the video that convinced you that that was the good stuff.
good video ...
Thank you
Do you know what happened that I can’t find anywhere 327 ammo, is everyone buying it or the manufacturers not making any more? Can’t find in stock anywhere.
Hey Pal..I have a Henry Carbine and a Ruger both in 327 fed mag. Where do you find ammo for that round!?!?? Frustrated🤔🤣
Generally from Buffalo Bore directly 100 gr XTP. If that is out of stock their .32 H&R+P in a snub nose is identical power, but in a rifle it will be less powerful. Their hard cast .327 would do well in a rifle. I also hand load .327 Mag, not a big deal for me.
This video is a God-send.
I'll be fully prepared the next time I'm attacked by a raging gang of pumpkins.🥸
👍
Leafs are a fallin', frost on the pumpkins, apple cider season, rock on young man. That's one way to make pumpkin pie. ps what's the temp there!?
Great video..thanks
Thanks
I’m new to shooting,
I’ve never seen guns like those.
One day you will learn. Power, kid..power -none of that tip tap sh**
