The Ruger Blackhawk .45, built on the large .44 Magnum frame, is very strong. Most reloading manuals have special "Ruger only" loads for them. Ruger is also building .45s on the smaller, .357 frame. These should NOT be used with the "Ruger only" loads.

I have a .45 Blackhawk that I bought in the late '90s. It has been shot many, many times. Into the thousands, I'm sure. I have used the ACP cylinder for 99% of my shooting. It is very accurate.
