Reloading, and the guns that will handle it? What revolvers handle super hot loads the best?

Ruger. It's built like a tank!

While the Super Blackhawk, Redhawk, and Super Redhawk do handle hot loads, you might want to re-consider your loads. The next thing after cylinders crack is usually a sudden need for a Surgeon specializing in reconstructive surgery of the hand. Even if the load is not compressed, certain powders have unpredictable changes in the pressure curve when loaded above what the manual states. This is not simple physics, and unless you did better in the Differential Equations class than I did, you might want to trust the published figures.

collectively because it incredibly is often somewhat a danger to run severe pressures in any firearm Ruger double action revolvers (such simply by fact the excellent redhawk) are indexed by employing Garrett Cartridges as being between the few weapons which will shelter their maximum well liked +P 40 4 magazine a lot, the 330-GR great-stressful-forged GC long-HAMMERHEAD AT 1400-FPS. As to long term use any time you fire any gun you have aspects which will adventure somewhat placed on and tear. generally the warmer a lot strengthen placed on on any of the traditional placed on aspects. 2 places to observe are the physique around the firing pin (this might strengthen a "ring" from the case being pushed decrease back into it, no longer a real difficulty yet speeded up placed on could be info that your a lot are too warm) and the suited strap above the hollow between the cylinder and barrel (the place escaping powder will reason erosion). severe placed on on the suited strap is extra worry-loose with incredibly warm a lot, and grew to become into an element of the dying of the .357 optimal. finally, employing warmer a lot will make the revolver "shoot loose" merely before it would in any different case. In a 44mag great redhawk this could not be a difficulty too quickly yet might ensue with persisted use years down the line. with regard to the secret a lot. Wander right into some extra desirable pawn shops and gun sellers and you will see a brilliant number of weapons that have been blown to bits by employing handloads. it would be a tragic factor to do on your gun or perhaps sadder to your hand. i could be surprisingly worried of a load that somebody else has made up specific...

You know, there is a reason there is a MAXIMUM you're not supposed to exceed in the books.

Granted, sometimes (ie. a low pressure load) going a couple tenths over will not make a difference, but..

If you're dealing with high-pressure max loads, with jacketed bullets no less you'd best be served sticking to published data. You're lucky you still have your hands. .5 grains over max can be a lot in some loads!

Stick to published data..

One of the reasons I'm leary of shooting with people I don't know on the range is irresponsible "rambo reloaders" like you that just have to push things until you blow something up.

Your best bet would to reload like a sane person does and stop putting your own life and others around you in jeopardy. Suppose you pull the trigger on a hot load and kill the guy standing next to you when you next revolover explodes...

Eventually Darwin will give you an award. Let's hope you don't take any innocent bystanders out with you. One stupid death is enough.

Congrats. Not everybody can blow up a Blackhawk. Rugers are known for their strength. Linebaugh chose the Ruger Bisley for his cartridges because of their strength. Maybe you should do like he did and rework it into a five-shot to give you that extra chunk of metal.

the max stated loads are as hot as you should go

any of the name brand weapons should be able to handle +P and +P+ loads but check with the manufacturer as to whether or not the weapon in question is designed to handle it

remind me to never be near you when you are on the range

the super blackhawk is rated for +P+ loads and you overstressed one making the gun worthless

My recommendations for you are as follows:

1, read the published data and safety precautions

2, re-read the published data and safety precautions

3. read the operators/owners manual for the firearm your using............. again

4. keep to factory loads if you can not follow safety precautions as they are already written in someone's blood that pushed the extreme no need to re write history.

5. If you don't have the manual for your Super Blackhawk, please contact Ruger, I am sure they will send you one.

If you insist on overloading rounds, you are better off with a Thompson Contender. The heavy, single shot chamber has more steel to keep you from eating shrapnel.

The single shot Thompson Contender seems more appropriate for that.
