Actually, I think you can over load; if you've got a brass frame. I've got a brass frame 1851, and I'm using about 20 gr. I think the steel frame will start off with a good deal more.
Obviously a full chamber well peen the recoil shield on a brasser but that is undue wear and tear, the cylinder well not be damaged.

You do bring up a good point, shoot reduced loads in a brass frame revolver. The half caliber size would be a maximum load for me and my brassers.
