Thanks for the reply RC...Ruger Blackhawk is still being made.

They are terribly loud, and the muzzle blast & ear splitting crack is far worse then a .44 Magnum.
Taurus also lists one but I have never seen one, and wouldn't buy one if I did.

Sure. It's a revolver. You can make up just about any load you might want for it.couldn't we reload the large muzzle blast and crack out of it using a powder more suitable for short barrels?
Thanks, I'm mainly looking for revolvers right now.Don't forget AMTs' stainless semi auto.
That sounds disappointing...I had a Ruger and clocked 110 grain military ball ammo from the 7.5" barrel and found it went 1400 FPS. I have loaded 110s in the 38 Special to that velocity. I was unimpressed and sold it. The 30C in a handgun can't get off its knees in terms of power. All it makes is a boat load of muzzle blast and noise.
Thanks for sharing. This is why I read so much here. The information is invaluable. I think from what I have gathered here and other sources, that now I am thinking 30 carbine is a no go. Maybe .357 or .44 mag.Here's a previous post about my experience with the Blackhawk .30 Carbine:
