Have you ever turned down the back of the .45ACP cylinder on a Ruger Blackhawk .45 so it could shoot .45 Auto Rim ammo along with .45ACP? The ACP round headspaces on the case mouth so that wouldn't change.

Re: ? for Txgunrunner
Your answer is NO ....That would super easy to do , but I see NO reason to make a 45 auto rim fit the 45 ACP cylinder . There is brass like the 45 auto rim made to fit the 45 colt cylinder for SASS shooters . I heard some shooters use the 45 AR brass in both cylinders in different Rugers . Not all cylinder are the same between Ruger SA .
Re: ? for Txgunrunner
Thanks Tx. I don't think auto rim brass will work in a standard .45 Colt cylinder because the rim is thick to = the thickness of moon clips when used with .45 ACP. I have the Ruger convertible .45 = .45 ACP. and .45 Colt cylinders. Like you I had a "Super" lowered spur hammer installed before I even shot the revolver for the first time. My first big bore handgun was a pristine 1917 Colt. Alas it got traded years ago.
