Rugged’s posted minimum barrel length for use with the 450bm is 16”.. now I’m pretty darn sure that had to of been established with full blown super sonic loads. Any thoughts or experience from anyone using the Rugged Obsidian 45 on a 10” 450bm barrel shooting ONLY subsonics moving at about 1000fps. I have a SiCo Hybrid and VERS 458 but that little Obsidian 45 is so lite and small. Think it’s possible without blowing up or causing permanent damage?

That’s sort of what I was thinking. It’s no different then 45acp velocities, just don’t know on the whole pressure thing. I sent rugged an email but I’m doubtful they’ll give an official green flag for it.
