Cartridge length?

Post by 44-40 Willy »

How long a cartridge length can the 92 action be modified to take? I've got an idea kicking around about modifying a 357 to 357 Max. The pressure isn't that much more than the Mag that I don't think the 92 design can handle.

I do not know the exact length, but when the cartridge is on the carrier, it goes from the stop on the carrier to the cartridge stop. The 92 is designed to handle .44-40 length cartridges.
