I've been using combustable paper cartridges mostly, but want to try metallic cartridges for once. Of course, I've seen "Pale Rider" many times!
Guess I hafta say that if R&D says it (.45 LC) will work then it must be so. However, at $240 per cylinder I won't get too many spare ones!

I know what you mean, I haven't bought one yet but will probably splurge on one as a Christmas Present for my self.
Just remember that they are intended to be used with Cowboy action loads or pressures.
