I don't remember if I already shared the link here, but here's a modern marvel
The write up of Rugers Stainless Alloys for SBH Revolvers proofed to 300 rounds at 92,000 psi
Amazing we can own such marvelous products, at such a fraction of the cost in engineering, development, machining centers used to manufacture them, and the skills it takes to make it all happen.
THANK YOU RUGER

AMAZING technology - think early 1900's instead of early 2000's - soft steel barely able to avoid peening with black powder...

Is that the same alloy that Freedom Arms uses?
