How hot are we loading our .45 Colt Ruger Redhawks these days?

The 23000 psi loads are a joy to shoot and only seem a little more stout than standard Colt. (14000 Psi)

Agreed. There is very little, if anything, a 300 gr 45 caliber bullet at 1100 fps won't do, and with the right powders they fall way below the 30,000 psi threshold. Adding 200 fps and 5-10,000 pounds of pressure and recoil doesn't make a whole lot of sense.

AMENAH!
