I own a .327 LCR.
(And a 4.2" SP101. And a 4" GP100. And a 5.5" Blackhawk.
)
For some one that's recoil shy, I would look at the .327 LCR as a
.32 H&R revolver that's
capable of shooting .327 Federal.
While still not terrible, .327 Federal fired in the LCR still isn't, exactly, 'pleasant'. Add cold hands and/or some one with thin, bony fingers and no real muscle or fat in the hands, and it goes right into painful.
While my wife will shoot almost any of my .327 Federal revolvers "all day long" with hot .32 H&R loads, she isn't fond of full power .327 Federal, even in her 5.5" Blackhawk that weighs
three times as much as the LCR (48 oz vs 16.5 oz). And she won't fire the LCR with full power .32 H&R any more. It's 'sissy loads' or she goes to the GP100.
Full power loads in the .327 LCR are not as bad as .357 Mag, in my opinion; but still far from the magical transition to baby kisses and unicorn farts that some people want you to believe.
Bottom line:
It's a good choice, but sticking with some of the 'baby brother' cartridges is probably a good idea for someone recoil sensitive.
Doing something like starting with .32 S&W Long standard loads and slowly working up to .32 H&R power levels (over 200-300+ rounds) might be a reasonable way of avoiding recoil aversion and fear of the revolver.
