S&W 66 & light bullet weights
I just read a few posts that light bullet weights can crack forcing cones. I have a S&W Model 66 that is about 15 years old. What is the lightest bullet weight that can safely be used in this gun w/ full house .357 loads?

It's been recommended to me to use 147 if at all possible. apparently the person who owned my gun before me didn't get that message.

Re: S&W 66 & light bullet weights
I just read the posts on your gun - sorry about your trouble. So you are saying a minimum bullet weight of 147, correct?
