This is clearly the thread to hijack just a bit for a question. I am thinking of messing around with heavy bullets. For the .41 I am thinking about 270 grains. I am not interested in terribly high velocity, about 1100 would be fine. The gun in question is a 4-inch S&W M58, no-dash. Would a 270 hard cast lead bullet at 1100 beat this revolver up too much? If so, would you suggest dropping bullet weight, velocity, or both? (For context, I am considering 300/1100 in a .44 Mag. Ruger Bisley. But I am not terribly worried about such a load in that revolver.)

Thanks in advance. If this should be moved to a separate thread, I will be happy to do so.
