Well......like any revolver......44 to 45 means using lower pressure loads........I was surprised how thin the wall thickness was on the 69..........have to measure the chamber this weekend with Intermics......I chamber a tight 45 chamber. Dave Manson reamers
I’ve done 6 shot 475 by rechambering a 45 colt BlackHawk......ya just can’t be stupid.......
I may chamber to 45 S&W........seems appropriate doesn’t it......do a failsafe that way though the extra boiler room would be nice........I’ll be doing it end of next month.....doing a 329 at the same time......one light.....one smaller. And cuts for moon clips....30-06 for full length shotshells
A 480 Redhawk is in the plans at the same time. With the same cuts to use 284 Winchester for the short shells......looking forward to it.
With full moon clips
