Ruger Blackhawk Convertible .45?
As one would expect, this revolver shoots .45 Long Colt ammo. And .45 ACP when you switch cylinders. I'm unsure about how the ACP mode works.
I've read that at least one other revolver--in this case, a double action--that fires .45 ACP requires moon clips. However I don't know if it's even possible to use moon clips in a single action.
Does a Blackhawk Convertible in ACP mode load in a normal way? And do you eject the spent casings in a normal way? Does swapping cylinders require special tools beyond a screwdriver? Do .45 ACP rounds with full metal jackets cause extra wear and tear on the forcing cone? (The copper in the jackets is a bit harder than lead.) What are your experiences with this firearm?
The .45 ACP headspaces on the case mouth, so that is where the cartridge will stop when you put it into the chamber. Since you extract cases with a rod anyway, there is no need for a rim for extraction. So, while the headspacing is a different style, you actually load, fire, and extract in the same way as if you were using the rimmed .45 Colt loads. Of course, you MUST have the .45 ACP cylinder installed for this to work.
There is nothing to worry about when it comes to jacketed bullets and forcing cone or barrel wear. Some of the most powerful jacketed bullets in the world are fired through Ruger revolvers, including .45 Colt loads.
I own the Ruger Vaquero in .45. You can change a cylinder in less than a minute with no tools except your fingers.
