Light weight bullets in magnum loads can cause premature erosion of the titanium cylinder. It's a great carry gun.

Disappointed with the 340 scandium

Someone here posted a picture a while back about what happened when they used 110 gr bullets and it was ugly-major erosion. I was amazed at how bad it was.
