@bobross4886 "Unforgiven" made by Clint Eastwood and in it you have: Clint Eastwood, Gene Hackman, Morgan Freeman and Richard Harris. Very good western.

@Prowbar "Pb is only slightly soluble in liquid or solid steel. When added , Pb does not remain in the metal but it remains separate from and mechanically dispersed in the steel as submicroscopic metallic inclusions when it solidifies. It does not change the mechanical properties of the steel appreciably. The sole function of Pb is to improve the machinability of steel. This accounts for the wide use of Pb for high strength steel for which machinability is required. Also, Pb only slightly influences mechanical properties of steel. However, with the growing consciousness of environmental issues in recent years, there is a tendency toward eliminating Pb because it is seen to be one of the pollutants of the environment."

Because reading with understanding is hard for some people? :P "the most powerful commercially manufactured repeating handgun from 1847 until the introduction of the .357 Magnum in 1935"-> can bet that in XVI and XVII century people were loading that old big caliber guns with idiotic ammount of black powder in case the other guy will gonna have some armor on him-> and after 1847 typical soldier were not using any armor(even helmets came back to popularity only because WW1 and shrapnels generated by modern artilery...

"The Colt Walker was quite powerful, with modern replicas firing modern FFFg black powder producing energy levels in excess of 500 foot-pounds (680 J) muzzle-energy with both picket bullets and 0.454-inch-diameter (11.5 mm), 141-grain (9.1 g) round ball bullets. The black powder Colt Walker is regarded as the most powerful commercially manufactured repeating handgun from 1847 until the introduction of the .357 Magnum in 1935, having a muzzle energy nearly exactly the same as a 4-inch-barreled (10 cm) handgun firing a .357 Magnum.". So not 645 foot-pounds but "only" 500+ and not "themost powerfull handgun" but "the most powerful commercially manufactured repeating handgun". And if we ignore the "safety" on other guns from 1847-1935 then most likely we will be able to get more than 680J out of them(once or twice before they blow up).
