44 Magnum +P Load Data Articles Handloader #248, #265 torrent

This Torrent contains Two Articles from Handloader magazine #248 (August 2007) and #265 (April 2010), taken from a PDF CD ordered from them.

The one is a longer article that talks about the over-engineered nature of the Ruger RedHawk and Super-RedHawk and gives load data that exceeds the SAAMI max for 44 Magnum, but is considered safe for the above pistols. The author got with Rugers engineers and got a max pressure rating from them that is still considered 100% safe, and developed load data based off of that.

I have fired +P loads from data in the articles, and still have my hand, no excessive pressure signs on the cases or any issues with the pistol (a Super-RedHawk).

The other article gives some other, more limited load data, and talks more about the Ruger pistols.

Then there are 3 pdfs of load data from Handloads.com included for the hell of it.

I advise extreme caution, and to only attempt these loadings in the right type of firearm, and only if you are an experienced handloader that knows what they are doing.

Be Safe
