I have a couple of revolvers chambered in .357 Mag and feel comfortable with smokeless powder and jacketed bullets. I do handload. I'm in the market for a new handgun and was tempted by a S&W 357PD in .41 Mag but reviews and comments hear have changed my thinking. Another twist took me down the Ruger Blackhawk chambered in .41 Mag and therefor into the SA mindset. So why not consider a Colt SAA replica in .45 Colt you say? Well now we're talking about a black powder round and lead bullets. Sure, you can use smokeless powder and I know about Trail Boss but what kind of problems are associated with non jacketed bullets? I don't really want to get into molds and alloys. So what are the disadvantages associated with shooting these replicas and what extra steps are involved with maintenance and cleaning?
Thanks
