S&W model 66

[kingvillien]

I've read on several forums that the S&W K frame revolvers can't handle 125gr bullets, but can handle 156gr and up because of a defect in their forcing cone. Is this true? Would shooting buffalo bore out of it be safe, particularly this product: http://www.buffalobore.com/index.php?l=product_detail&p=287 ? Thanks.

Probably should ask in the Revolver forum, liable to get more knowledge there. But I've heard of some S&W K frames getting "flame cutting" damage to the top strap, and it seems like it was related to lighter bullets. But I couldn't tell ya any details.
