fully supported barrels are usually ramped, which requires a cut in the frame, The closest you can come to a ramped barrel is to order something like a barsto and tell them not to "break the tip over lip". Most case splits with 40s occur with glocks for two reasons, IPSC shooters trying to make major with 200 gr bullets and the the debris cuts along the side of the glock chamber are extremely thin, however I have had a Barsto actually break using 200 gr bullets were the ramp enters the frame due to the torque. You are making way to big a deal out of this. most glocks cause what is called the glock bulge which is an increase in the case just ahead of the web and makes reloading the brass and using it in tighter chambers especially in 1911 difficult. Take it from someone who has loaded over 50k rds of 40 and 10 mm, the taurus is a big and beefy gun as long as you follow standard procedures you won't have any problems.

forgot to add no-- your taurus doesn not have a fully supported chamber, nor does it need it.

Thanks for the info. Very helpful. Will try reloading and keep the powder charges just under factory specs. Also will load uncharged case and cycle it thru the gun several times to make sure the bullet is crimp properly and does not get pushed back into the caseing.
Thanks,
Bill
