Can the mid-sized Flattop 357 take a steady diet of magnum to full house magnum loads?
I would like to think it could handle them like a NM Blackhawk or GP since it is a magnum gun but was wondering when you start to get into max territory how it would hold up.

Had one with a serial number 12XX. It handled loads that I simply did not enjoy shooting. I shot 'em...but didn't enjoy it! No sign of undue wear or battering.

Not a flattop but I have a older no prefix small frame 357 from the 60s . I've shot a lead mine thru it over the past 45 years I've owned it. Still tight and ready for another 40-50 years.
