[QUOTE="LBnM, post: 1064428, member: 817"] Here is a quote from an "older" 340PD manual. Maybe yours doesn't have it. "Do not use Magnum loadings with bullet weights of less than 120 grains - This will reduce the possibility of premature erosion in titanium alloy cylinders." I agree that the solvents aren't the issue on the titanium cylinder. As I stated you still have to be careful with the NGs of the solvents and the Scandium frame. But, my 296 manual stated not to use wire brushes with the solvents, again due to erosion of the cylinder. My titanium framed 296 also stated on the barrel not to use bullets over 200 grain. The reasoning explained in the manual was that heavier bullets could jump the crimp locking up the cylinder. [/QUOTE]
