I’ve never broken anything, so I can’t really measure reliably.
I can say that attempting a proof charge full cylinder of bullseye didn’t do anything and the fact it uses LC conversion cylinders speaks to strength
“The revolver was tested by loading each chamber to capacity with Bullseye smokeless powder and a lead ball. While this might result in catastrophic failure in other firearms, the Old Army proved to be strong enough to handle the pressure.”

One was my first BP gun and I’ve seen no reason to change it up
