And that 327 ammo is going to be as hard to find as 32 H&R mag whereas there are 6 million carbines out there.

My old model blackhawk is one hole accurate in 30 carbine. You avoid this whole chicken and egg ammo sales/marketing problem.
Over the last few years, I have collected enough brass to be happy with my stash of .327 (and .32 H&R/.32 S&W Long/.32 S&W/.32 Auto). If I had to, I could make it last 30+ years. Otherwise, I am fully prepared to be placing an order with a custom brass manufacturer for 500-1,000 cases, some time in the future. I don't expect to, but I am prepared to.

Primers and powder are used in other cartridges, as well. Bullets, I can cast or swage. It's just the brass, that I need. I can't make it myself (yet... ).

But... that doesn't matter. The .327 still seems to be holding its own.
The introduction of .327 Federal has even caused an increase in popularity of .32 H&R, and prodded some rules modification for Cowboy Action shooters. It's still doing good things.
