The Double Tap 327 Federal Magnum 60-grain Barnes TAC-XP brings serious performance to a round that doesn't get enough respect. This is a smart choice if you want genuine stopping power without the punishing recoil of a 357 Magnum, or if you just appreciate what a compact 327 Federal revolver can deliver.
What makes this 327 Federal load stand out is the combination of modern ballistics and practical design. You get 1500 fps and 374 foot-pounds of energy from a relatively compact round, which sits somewhere between a 38 Special and a 357 Magnum in terms of power. The lead-free Barnes TAC-XP bullet is an all-copper hollow point that expands reliably on impact while retaining 100 percent of its weight. That weight retention means it penetrates consistently instead of fragmenting like some other bullets under high velocity.
The DT Tactical designation tells you this load was engineered with practical self-defense scenarios in mind. Low muzzle flash is built into the recipe here, which matters if you're defending yourself indoors or at night. Reduced recoil makes follow-up shots faster and more accurate, a real advantage in a revolver where every shot counts. The 60-grain weight keeps things controllable without sacrificing the velocity needed for terminal performance.
The 327 Federal Magnum operates at 45,000 PSI, higher than a 357 Magnum, which lets manufacturers push lighter bullets to impressive speeds. A six-shot 327 revolver holds one more round than a five-shot 357 in the same frame size, giving you extra capacity without going to a bigger gun. If you're carrying, shooting practice, or keeping a revolver for home defense, that extra round matters. The Barnes TAC-XP is exactly the kind of modern bullet the 327 was designed for. Double Tap loads this round with the attention to detail the company is known for, personally inspecting every cartridge to catch assembly errors that machines miss.
Any revolver chambered in 327 Federal Magnum will fire this load. Popular options include the Ruger SP101, Ruger GP100, Ruger LCR, Taurus, and Charter Arms models. Many of these revolvers can also shoot milder 32 H&R Magnum, 32 S&W Long, and 32 S&W Short loads if you want lower recoil practice ammunition.
The 327 Federal delivers roughly 70-85 percent of the energy of a 357 Magnum from the same size frame, but with significantly less recoil and muzzle flash. A revolver chambered in 327 holds one extra round versus a comparable 357. The 327 operates at higher pressure (45,000 PSI versus 35,000 PSI for 357), enabling modern bullets like the TAC-XP to perform reliably at the higher velocities.
Yes. The Barnes TAC-XP bullet in this load is specifically designed for defense. It expands reliably upon impact while maintaining 100 percent weight retention, ensuring consistent penetration. The low muzzle flash and manageable recoil support faster, more accurate follow-up shots compared to larger magnum rounds.
Yes. Double Tap loads on reloadable brass cases, and these are often used by handloaders who want to experiment with different powders and loads for the 327 Federal Magnum. Check standard reloading references for safe load data and always follow established handloading procedures.
