I'm curious about running higher-pressure loads in a stainless TRP.
Pressure listings in various loading manuals for .40-S&W are almost 2X compared to .45-ACP, and I know SA chambers the .40-S&W in their 1911 model line...
So, I guess my question is this: Should I avoid a STEADY DIET of +P ammo in my TRP, or should I install a 'stiffer' recoil spring if I'm going to shoot mostly +P loads ?
(or should I avoid +P and just be happy shooting 200-gr. bullets at 850 -to- 900 fps ) ???
Thanks for you input on this -- I'm just now 'breaking in' the TRP so I'm not sure what it really likes yet... and of course, most of my shooting involves 'killing paper targets' not carbon-based life-forms. My experience is that standard pressure loads do work fine on paper, but then again, I've always been one that leaned more toward pushing the speed limit somewhat.
