So,staying at or below maximum powder load recommended by manufacturing company or well respected reload charts will not hurt my gun even if it's fed a continuous diet of max loads?
The frame is not the crane. Endshake is caused by a springed crane, not by a springed frame. There is no way in hell you will spring a frame on any Smith or Colt with SAAMI spec loads.
Go back to your S&W koolaid now. Ruger has you beat and Freedom Arms beats any .357 ever made for strength, just the way it is. Accept it, it's true.
Okay.......I dont want to be like everyone else and just get a 44 magnum, I dont want to be considered apart of the sheep who buy whatever magazine tells them is good...
It is clear you lack a basic understanding of things mechanical. It is blatantly obvious that in a system where a cylinder is attached to a crane, the crane itself will peen and bend before a fully boxed frame will.
They can, but the end shake is not typically caused by frame stretching. It is caused by peening of the cylinder bushing or wear due to improper lubrication. By the time a gunsmith gets the gun, he has no idea what the original frame dimension was. He does not have an x-ray machine. How can he know if it's stretched and by what amount? I have seen visibly stretched frames caused by firing a round with a barrel obstruction, however.Again, what about single action revolvers? You're saying they cannot suffer end shake?
I'm sorry but NO Ruger is as strong as a Freedom Arms. Not only are FA 83's beefier overall they also feature a five-shot cylinder with better steels and heat treating. FA is at the top, no doubt.Probably the strongest .357 is the Ruger Redhawk followed by the large frame BlackHawks and FA's.

I wonder if i can take a blank cylinder for such as a blackhawk. instead of 6 rounds, chamber only 5 rounds in the entire cylinder to give it even more integrity. make it a 5 shooter lol
but do they make the 83 in .357
the point would be to have a 357 magnum capable of shooting with 357 maximum 357 supermag and 353 casull
BTW, Freedom Arms frames are cast form 17-4 PH stainless. Are they stronger than S&W X-frames? Doubt it. They are both adequate to withstand constant pounding by 50,000+ PSI large bore loads.
