Lol Aloy, seems more sporting if the targets fight back.

I will shoot in a revolver. A Remington 1875 single action and a Ruger Blackhawk. I wonder about the forcing cones but otherwise shouldn't be any other issues. I also have three bullets in. 356 for 9 mm but I shoot this in a pistol and feeding and controlling pressures in the small 9 mm case make reversing too problematic.

Don't worry about the forcing cone (as long as your barrel is properly alligned with the chamber), but do pay attention on these ricochets. Here it's forbidden to use wadcutters on bowlingpins and I know why, I've seen broken glasses and bleeding foreheads and that's not so funny at that moment.

And you have to keep in mind 1 extra thing: for a decent traject a bullet needs a nice equal base. The tip of the bullet is less important than the base. Now when you reverse things, you have to pay attention on the last ring close to the tip, because he becomes the seal in the barrel and any problems there will help you shoot around the corner instead of straight ahead to your target.

Interesting, while I thought about this before out of curiosity, I ran across this site.

We just got 40 cm of snow so I won't be shooting anything in the next couple of weeks. Thanks for the comments. I think I will load some. 358 for my revolver and. 35 remington rifle and see how they work out.
