T TennJed New member Aug 31, 2014 #5 Can anyone confirm if the EAA bounty hunter is large frame capable of hot loads?
J Jim Watson New member Aug 31, 2014 #6 Well, they have made the Bounty Hunter in .44 Magnum. So if the .45 is the same size and material, it should stand up to "hot loads" for at least some value of "hot."
