Recoil is slightly less than a equally loaded .44 Mag. John Linebaugh writing says 3 tons hits the frame with .45 Colt and slightly over 3 tons for .44 Mag. The beauty of the Colt is it shoots softer and delivers more energy and KO power. A larger bore is the reason.

One of the easiest and safest ways to ensure these large frame Ruger only loads never wind up in a gun for which they are not suited is to take advantage of the cylinder length of the large frame Blackhawk. Its cylinder is longer than that on a Colt Peacemaker (and its clones), the New Vaquero, and other such unsuitable guns. When I began playing with these heavy loads, I simply ordered a bullet mold from Veral Smith of Lead Bullet Technologies for a 300 grain LFN design. Veral will place the crimp groove wherever you like. I had him locate it so that a loaded round is too long for a Colt length cylinder, effectively precluding its use in those guns. With a pretty good bucket full of Colts of various generations, I really didn't want to damage one. This approach makes that well neigh impossible, the cylinder won't rotate with these loads in place. I sleep better at night knowing that. Oh, and yes - get a Bisley grip frame. Midway sells one. Takes some filing and fitting, but well worth the effort.

back in the 1960s or 70s (don't recall when) Ruger got sued by a fool lawyer who was out hunting and "dry" firing his weapon in the back seat. It went off, his companion was shot and he blamed the gun. Ruger lost that suit due to a zealot judge. after that, all Rugers were emblazoned with a long and ugly product warning that lawyers assured Ruger would ward of similar law suits (it didn't). Anyway, a term used then and forgotten now: I used to have my Father in Law's Blackhawk(now here it the term); "Pre paragraph". it had the original hammer with the hammer mounted firing pin.

Your opening clip looks like my dad the first time he shot my Ruger New Model Super Blackhawk with a .44 Magnum load. The indoor range we were at did not allow magnums so we had to shoot .44 Special through it (believe it or not, Houston actually had some ordinance banning shooting magnum ammo at the time, but you could shoot full powered rifle rounds. Fortunately that idiocy has since gone away.). I stepped out and ask the guy behind the counter if we could shoot one .44 Mag cartridge just so my dad could feel the difference. I loaded the gun up with 5 Specials and 1 Magnum. The specials were like shooting a .22 but when that Magnum lit up his arm did exactly what yours did sweeping upper left. He turned to me in shock I actually used to have rubber grips on my super blackhawk because the thin wood grips were so slick and thin...but have since took them off and in time have gotten the thin wood grips to work for me without feeling so hard.

That load is really something. With my Ruger SBH, I've loaded 300 gr Hornady XTPs over a charge of 19.0 gr of H110, giving me 1230 fps. But that was with a 7.5" barrel. It's the book max, and I wouldn't use it in my S&W 629, 5" barrel. I'm concerned about those high and low rounds though. If you hand-weigh the charges, I'd back down a little as it might be excessive pressure causing erratic velocities, even if it is a published load. Otherwise, you might want to check if there's something going on with whatever setup you use to throw the powder. Anyway, great video. Good shootin, and have fun!

And the 45 Colt is heavier. So you don't really need to hand load to get 44 magnum power out of your 45 Colt.

The poor 44 mag fares even worse... safe loads for 240-250 grain bullets in manuals run easy 1350-1400 fps.... most factory loads run around 1250... apples to apples? if the Ruger is so special strength wise.... and I have no reason to doubt that..... what you are shooting is a max or better pressure 45 colt load.. Which is fine but Ruger also makes that same gun in 44 mag... I too have shot 44 mag all my life (well 73 on anyway) and some of my loads would cut my hand on the SBH corners are sharp on that gun LOL Soo... my warmish 44 mag load runs about 1250-1300 with a cast and coated 250 SWC or wide flat nose. my mild load is around 1100 fps with the same bullet. one load turns me into an uncontrollable flincher in less than 50 rounds

TiglathPileser, A question in the same vein was asked of Christopher Columbus just before he sailed from Palos de la Frontera towards the Known Edge of the World. There are the overwhelming crowds that stand on the shore, afraid to go more than ankle deep into the unknown. Then there are the few who dive in headlong, no holds barred, in for a penny / in for a pound. And once they find a treasure, Every timid soul rushes forward to claim their "rightful" share, proudly and gleefully. Though some may be born bold, the rest of us may become bolder by taking just one more step towards the Unknown, one , one, and yet another. Self imposed limits are Still Limits . "Live Free . . ." ☆

Maybe hotter than standard pressure 44 mag since from the same 4-5 inch barrel those max out at aroun 900-1000 ft lbs but if u want a hot load its hard to compete with the 340 gr +p+ from a 5.5 inch ruger they clocked it at 1401 fps and alaskan ballistics clocked them at *1200+* (had to go look again) from a 2.5 alaskan so they are hot yes but realistically definately not more than 44 mag

Is that a New model Blackhawk? I had a box of super hot HSM 325 grain “bear loads” and Ruger said my Blackhawk isn’t rated for it. I did shoot a cylinder of them in my Redhawk but the recoil was brutal it felt like 44mag and Ruger rep also said to not shoot that ammo in the regular Redhawk either!?! 🤷♂️
@Real11BangBang3 ай бұрын
It is a new model Blackhawk, but that is the same new model Blackhawk.They have been making since the early 1970s.I have never heard that.You could not shoot those loads and either the Blackhawk or the red Hawk or the new model Blackhawk.The only ones that are not rated for are the new model vaquero

I’ve shot that powder charge behind a 250 grain bullet. I have a 5.5 inch Blackhawk with the Bisley grip. I shot a deer once with a 44mag 10 inch barrel . 310 hard cast gas check and 19 grains. At 50 yards it went through the deer and deep enough in the ground I couldn’t find the bullet.

Cant believe you had the balls to one hand that. I have a 7.5" bisley Blackhawk. 45 and i shot 350gr hardcast over 22.5gr of H110. That would break my skinny wrist if i did that

There is so much to like about the Blackhawks that I am inclined (when I can afford it) to get one and have a gunsmith recut the chamber mouth to the proper size. P.S. how can you identify a large frame Blackhawk?

Nice just keep an eye on it. This information may have came from freedom arms. A good friend has been hand gun hunting for 35yrs. All over the world. This is who had warned me of h110. He perfers 2400. Thanks for the content and a reply back. You just gained a sub!
@timhallas42759 ай бұрын
More recoil does not necessarily mean greater bullet energy. Recoil is more effected by bullet weight than anything else. Muzzle velocity contributes more to energy than does bullet weight. Barrel length matters when overloading the powder charge. Lots of powder is a waste of money when using a short barrel pistol. You should measure the velocity, before you compare this to a 44mag.

Didn't watch after the opening scene where the shooter exaggerated recoil. AFTER the gun's recoil he lifts the gun to a point behind his head. After that little fake scene, how might anyone trust whatever it is he has to say.
