That old revolver would be better served feeding it standard pressure lead bullet loads. That's what it was built for, and there is no need to over stress that old dandy. Lead doesn't necessarily shoot better or worse in any given revolver than does jacketed ammo. Depends on the gun as well as on the loads being fired. Frames built in later years were engineered to be stronger than those older models like yours. I'm sure it would fire jacketed rounds, but those of today will put more stress on that oldtimer! There was no such thing as jacketed rounds, as far as I know, back when that one was manufactured. The age does make a difference!

And no blast for asking? That's a good question!
