How tough is a Mk IV Webley revolver in .38 S&W?
I've got one here that is REAL nice and tight. Shoots so accurate. I just LOVE me it, but man them shells are high. I'd like to get a basic reloading setup for the gun but I have my thoughts.
Is the Webley .38 even worth reloading for? I understand the design is not as strong as a modern revolver. Will the gun shoot loose in short order if I fire normal pressure handloads in it? How many rounds can I expect to fire before it goes out of time?
Basically, I'm wanting to know if it would be worth it to invest in the reloading equipment for the gun if the gun won't even last long enough to fire much ammo through.
Just how durable/tough are these Webley .38s firing factory ammo anyway? Anybody have any idea?
