[QUOTE="SidecarFlip, post: 920991, member: 39764"] That is because pistol dynamics (straightwalled cases) and forcing cone in the beginning of the barrel on a pistol (revolver) impact the pill differently than with a bottlenecked case and pill. That, however, don't apply to a semi auto pistol like say a Glock 9 or a Kimber 45ACP, just a revolver. Rule of thumb for safe reloading of any straightwalled pistol case or pistol rounds used in lever action rifles is always seat to SAMMI specs or longer (within the parameters of the firearm to be used) and never short seat. Besides, unlike modern centerfire rifles, pistols (revolvers) have no way of venting an overpressure situation. Modern sporting rifles all have cross drilled side ports just for that scenario.
