Nope. Sorry C.J. SR-71 Pilots and Back Seaters are not granted "Astronaut" status. The SR-71, while flying at 80,000+, does not approach sufficient altitude for Astronaut status.

A long time ago, In a Galaxy far far away 😜 I use to do a 6 round mod on '97s. Then the "kit" came out and for the price, I found the work to do the mod a wast of time and effort. The kit is a "drop in" and done. Your call, of course.

That be a righteous nice Overland. Hang on to it 🤠

Hi Nickle Just because you are able to "get away" with something in a particular gun, doesn't mean you should. Large Rifle stand proud of the case rim. It is expected, in most guns, the "hight" primer will cause the cylinder to jam. There is also the possibility of an AD from recoil, though not highly likely, it is a hazard. I would doubt Smith and Wesson deliberately made the New Model #3 with excess head space. I would be more likely to hazard a guess there has been some damage from the past, not repaired. Other than the above, in your particular circumstance, the Large Rifle Primer would not cause excessive pressure. There is no more Brisance in a Large Rifle than in a Large Pistol Magnum Primer.

🤩 AND . . . . You still have a swell extra follower for your parts box. And it was FREE!! Show your Appreciation ( stolen famous cartoon line )

But Chola!! The OP actually asked "what is the most popular "Rifle." Nice you communed Cartridge/Load, but you omitted the specific rifles you be launching them bullets out of . . . . 😝

Well heck. I don't see a problem of note here. Just leave the odd follower in the tube. After cleaning the tube, squirt an amount of BoShield down the tube and let it dry, then reassemble. You instantly have an extra follower in yer parts box (free).

NICE. Actually VERY NICE you betcha 🤩

McMillan 50 BMG with a 2 foot barrel and muzzle break 🤩👍

Not to be Snarky (yes I am), but Large Rifle Primers are NOT an acceptable choice or substitute for Large Pistol Primers. Can and does cause head space issues.

PLUS ONE for Rip Snorter The absolute meanest, nastiest, LOUDEST handgun I ever fired was a Ruger Blackhawk in 30 Carbine. No way I'd ever consider firing 30 Carbine out of ANY Derringer.

Not real related, but when I was stationed in the UK, there was a "run" on British Telephone booths, returning service members wanted to bring them back as "souvenirs." They forgot to note, those iconic red phone booths were CAST IRON and weighed more than their entire family furniture weight allowance.

El Sobrante, Rebar has a myriad of odd projections up and down the entire span. When a projectile hits those projections, the rebound path of the projectile is completely unpredictable. The only direction least likely is DOWN. Rebar simply SUCKS!!

Hey H.K 😃 Ask and ye shall receive. A 32-20 Derringer can be yours just a phone call away. Oh, and a little dinero. Don't know how much dinero, but what a few bucks when satisfying an "itch" hey hey.
