I just got two used aftermarket barrels for my Ruger P90, one ported, the other threaded. I was unsure (as was the original owner) about the manufacturer, but my email conversations with the original retailer indicates they were made by Federal Arms Corp, which is now out of business. I have emailed Century Arms, who acquired all of Federal's assets asking for info, but in the mean time does anyone know if these barrels are rated for +P pressures in .45ACP?
I know that in "match grade" barrels these are on the low end, but they are accurate, from my experience so far. I'm just wondering about strength. I'm working on some heavy bullet (260gr.) reloads for deer season. Not looking to redline the pressure curve or anything but I'll be running around the mid to high end of SAAMI standard pressure. Just trying to figure out how much of a safety margin I have here.
Thanks in advance for any info.
