Frequently Asked Questions
S&W TTR8 for sale
How much does a TRR8 cost?
Smith & Wesson's 327 TRR8 Performance Center ranges from around $1,239 to $2,299, with some retailers listing it near $1,445–$1,549 and an average new price around $1,369. Prices vary by retailer and region.
What are the TR-8's best features?
The 327 TRR8 offers an eight-round cylinder in .357 Magnum, a significant capacity advantage over standard revolvers. Its N-Frame construction handles sustained firing well, and the Performance Center trigger provides smooth double-action pulls. Picatinny rails allow light and optic mounting for tactical applications.
Is the TRR8 an n frame?
Yes, the Smith & Wesson 327 TRR8 is built on an N-frame. This larger frame accommodates the eight-round cylinder and handles sustained .357 Magnum use.
What is the best 8-shot .357 Magnum revolver?
The Smith & Wesson 327 TRR8 Performance Center is a top 8-shot .357 Magnum revolver, retailing around $1,489, with an N-frame chassis, scandium alloy frame, and tactical rail. Competitors include the S&W 627 Performance Center and 8-shot offerings from Ruger and Taurus, giving buyers several strong options.
Does a 357 kick more than a 9mm?
Yes, .357 Magnum produces substantially more recoil than 9mm. A .357 Magnum generates around 10 foot-pounds of recoil energy compared to roughly 4.5 for 9mm. The magnum also pushes bullets about 30 percent faster, creating greater felt impulse and muzzle rise in most handguns.
Can a .357 stop a grizzly bear?
A .357 Magnum is marginal for grizzly defense. Experts recommend heavier calibers like .44 Magnum with hardcast bullets. If you must use a .357, load 200-grain hardcast bullets for maximum penetration. Bears have been killed with it, but the odds favor larger calibers.
