Ruger warns that the Vaquero is not for the heavy Ruger only loads The original Vaqueros were made on Blackhawk frames and could handle the heavy loads the newer Vaqueros are a light weight smaller frame for CAS shooting and should not be used for the heavy loads From Buffalo Bore " the New Vaquero is made on a much smaller 357 magnum sized frame and is not suitable for +P 45 Colt ammo" https://www.buffalobore.com/index.php?l=product_list&c=153

Thanks for the follow up on this Randy, I missed that detail here by not reading all the way down "These Heavy .45 Colt +P loads are NOT intended for the New Model Vaquero (small frame) and are too long to cycle properly through the Henry Lever Action". This will help other community members with interest in the "New Model" Vaquero.
