Doc I have a model '94 in .45 Colt, 2 Vaqueros in .45 Colt, and have reloaded smokeless for about 5 years. All of my cases were bought loaded and I have reloaded them since. I have not counted the times they have been reloaded but it has been 6 or 7. Not one has failed so far, of course I've loaded Cowboy Action loads. I do believe most are Starline brass. My '94 in .45 Colt has been excellent. I've had trouble with it twice, my brother-in-law and my nephew both cycled the action slowly and dropped a shell down in the action mechanism, requiring a quick removal of the lever to retrieve them. A brisk cocking action will avoid this situation entirely. And of course the Rugers have been trouble free. I'm sure these guns would be a blast with black powder- maybe after I retire next year.
