Re: Souping the good ole .405

Hey, Y'all,
Hey, partner, no need to apologize for anything said to me in reply. Having been a dumbass for the greater part of my 56 years, I've developed a fairly thick hide. Why, my wife reminds me of my limited mental capacity on a regular basis!!! Besides, I can come off rather salty myself sometimes.
Someone might have gotten the wrong impression of what I was getting to, because I would NEVER condone any load above the aforementioned factory pressure limit of 45,000 psi in a '95 lever action, new or old. My comments were strictly in reference to hot-rodding a really strong single-shot, such as the Ruger #1. If I misled, then please accept my apology.
One thing that might come into play with the necessarily longer 400 gr. bullet would be the amount of free-bore (or lack thereof) built into the Ruger chamber design. That would definitely be something to check out before assembling any loads with said bullet.
