    Default 44 Special Loads : New Rugers

    With the advent of the new and much stronger Ruger SA revolvers now being offered, what are the new "maximums" for reloading for these revolvers ? Most of the reloading manuals have different data for older guns and newer guns - understanding that the manuals have not had time to react.....is there any posted data for these new, and much stronger guns ?

    Regards, Vic

    Look in The Shooting Range and Taffin Tests.

    JT also wrote a few books like Gun Digest Book of the .44 whith reloading data.

    (This is page PA273; you can only view a few pages per day; table of content is PA4 and PA5...)

    I'm not sure manuals will have a new section for that gun/caliber, as S&W made a few guns already over the years; right now they are probably still cursing Ruger for the New Vaquero in 45 Colt....
