Been playing with the heavy Lee Mold in my Ruger Black Hawk and was thinking this would make a great wild pig round out of the 94 Trapper, I have only shot CAS loads and most of those were 250grain GOEX loads. Any of you guys run any heavy loads in your pistol caliber 94s?

Thanks for your time.

I shot 340gr SSK TC boolits over 22.5gr 296 in both my BH and my 94AE. It will take all the Ruger/TC loads you want to feed it. LOL wear a shoulder pad if you are going to shoot more than 15 or 20 of these..

I bought a PAST to run my Model 70 in 338, maybe I'll break it out for this one too.
Thanks, I thought it should be good to go.
