I have a model 15-4 (and I love it; it's one of my most accurate guns) and I wonder what's the difference between a model 15 and a 19. Is the 19 really stronger than a model 15, or are the cylinders just cut a little deeper to chamber .357 Magnums?
What I'm getting at is would a steady diet of +P ammo be OK for a model 15 if I stay away from jacketed 125 grain bullets? Or would it eventually shoot loose? I currently only shoot standard-pressure cast bullet loads in it, but I also load really hot +P's to shoot in my Security Six.
I know the model 19's will not take a steady diet of 125 grain .357's, but I think the failure mode is cracked forcing cone rather than getting loose or losing timing.
Does my question even make any sense? Thanks.
