My Ruger has a 1-1/2 inch barrel. Shooting magnum rounds through it is just silly. Turns it into a flamethrower and there’s not much more velocity to speak of. I’ve tested it with my chronograph.

Muzzle blast must block out the Sun!

Usually my 2nd shot brings it home
And .38s get me there.

Love My RUGER!

Still, there is some psychological value to a polar bear turning into a fire breathing dragon!

And I've never had a revolver jam on me, either (except a .44 I have that had the bullets back out because I ignored every article ever written that says you need a HEAVY crimp on heavy hand loads). EVERY semi-auto pistol I've ever fired more than 50 rounds through has jammed on me, and most of the other firearms I've ever shot - pistol, rifle or shotgun.

Mr. Murphy waits in hiding until I'm holding a loaded gun. :-)
