m gardner Posted December 4, 2010 Report Share Posted December 4, 2010 Everyone suggests that you use the standard 45 Long Colt loads in the S&W's. It's little more than a 45 ACP loading. A 255 grain hard cast bullet at 900 fps is nothing to take lightly though. You can really get some power out of it in the Ruger revolver. You may ruin your S&W if you shoot hot loads in it. Call S&W(1-800-331-0852) and ask if you can use some of the hotter factory loads in it on a limited basis for self defense. Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
