I have fired a lot of 255 gr slugs with 18.5 gr of 2400 and years ago when I had maximumidus, used to use 20 gr with the bullet crimped in front of the first band so it fit in a 25-3. Never had the cylinder come unlocked either to rotate or come open.
If you need the endurance package on a S&W 45 Colt you are pressing your gun and luck way to hard.
NOT saying the improvements are a bad thing. Just saying if your shooting loads in a 44 mag or 45 colt that they are actually needed to have the gun function correctly your might end up with issues other than the cylinder opening or rotating under recoil.
