Hi All,

This is my first post, I have been looking in for quite a while and really like what I see and I have learned quite a bit, so far.

I have a question on my Winchester low wall, regarding its strength or capascity as far as chamber pressure. Can anyone tell me what the highest pressure these actions can safely handle? Assuming an action in excellent condition of course.

I will be asking a lot of questions and hope I can answer a few as well, as I love single shot rifles and actions.

Thanks,

Marcos

In an original, the largest cartridge I'm aware of is a .38-55 using black or very low pressure smokeless loads and cast bullets. I would not go there myself.
