Flattened primers is a sign of excessive pressure. Becareful and aware of flame cutting the throat with a steady diet of hotter loads.

The s&w revolvers aren’t designed for hotter max loads. I have s&w revolvers for normal, standard magnum loads. I don’t like beating up my s&w guns. Hotter loads get fed to my ruger RedHawks. I like RedHawks and S &W N frames.
I haven't heard back from Underwood yet. I did aquire some Magtech FMJ in the meantime for my beat defense rounds. They are similar to the SJFP that I bought from them and enjoyed shooting without issues. Around 1,100fps. I think per the advice I've received here, I will stay in that range. And thank you, I don't regret this purchase one bit. Beautiful revolver and one that will belong to my son one day.
