I have shot some pretty powerful stuff out of it, and it just wants more.

Of 4 44 mags I've owned the only one that ever failed was a NM SBH, the ejector spring became weak and the ejector recoiled enough to dent the edge of the chamber, ruined it for accuracy. I don't know why they designed it that way, big disappointment, it may have been my most accurate handgun ever. Also owned a 5-1/2" and 7-1/2" redhawk and a 6" 629. I still have the 629 and will keep it. I like it best of all. Wouldn't mind having an old 6-1/2" 29, that's what I should have bought to start with... Live and learn.
